Usher wants to be a good role model for his baby son
The 'Love in This Club' singer - who has a nine-month-old boy Usher Raymond
V with wife Tameka - says he is taking the responsibilities of fatherhood
very seriously.
He said: "Now I represent what he is to become. He's going to admire me,
he's going to look up to me. He's going to say, 'I want to be' - or he
should say - 'I want to be like my father. I want be a man of valor. I want
to possess what my father has as a man.' "
Usher admits his relationship with his own father, who was also called Usher
and died earlier this year, was troubled but says he holds no grudges as it
taught him how to be a good parent.
He added to Essence magazine: "I don't judge my father because I forgave him
for anything he'd ever done to hurt me unintentionally.
"I've learnt you should never abandon that responsibility, which is to be
there, reading with your child, being supportive of your child's growth."
Usher was recently forced to deny rumors he had split from Tameka and
insisted he loved his wife and family to "death".
