Dwayne Wade might get ridiculed for his peculiar dress style, but one thing about it he’s always on top of his A-game and seems to be a good father and great catch for his longtime girlfriendGabrielle Union.
The Miami Heat player now author of “A Father First: How My Life Became Bigger Than Basketball“ recently sat down with JET Magazine for their upcoming cover, which hits newsstands today, and chatted it up with them about the drama-filled custody battle, co-parenting with his ex-wife and what the his future holds.
Excerpts below:
On the type of parent he is
I’m the kind of parent who asks my kids questions like what would be your ideal thing to do in the summer? This year it’s Disney World. Even though I make the final decision, I want them to feel involved. Not only in vacations but other things as well.
On the difficult custody battle
I didn’t set out to get full custody but I wasn’t able to see my kids the way I wanted and I’m not a parent who’s going to run away from his responsibilities. I was probably a terrible husband, but I pride myself on being a good dad.
On relationship with ex-wife
It’s been six years and hopefully one day she and I can get to the point where it’s a lot easier than it is now to co-parent.
