Speaking about his approach to parenthood in 2009, the actor said: “One of the most important lessons I’ve learned in my years as a father is to keep the lines of communication open with my kids.

“I care deeply about all of them, and I have made a conscious effort to talk to and to listen to them… not to lecture them, but to tell them things I think are important for them to know.”
