Usher and his baby son, Usher, are in August 2008 issue. Usher talks about marriage and being a dad. Here are the highlights of the interview.

What would you say to young men and women about what they should expect from a man who’s a father? What is living right as a father? How do you define that? How would that man look? That man would accept his responsibilities as a father, regardless of whether he was with the mother of the child. Men will leave a situation for several reasons. One, it’s not comfortable. It may be violent. The two of you may grow apart. But you should never abandon that responsibility, which is to be there, reading with your child, being supportive of your child’s growth. That is communicating. That is making the choice to put your child before your own vanity.

If you could take your finger and touch your 9-month-old son, Usher V, on the head and impart some certain knowledge, what would you want him to know? First of all, I’d actually look inside myself and evaluate what I felt like I missed from my own father.

What did you miss? Knowing that I was accepted. That I mattered. And hearing that he cared enough to put me before himself.

His baby is super cute!
