Dad Celeb Quote: Alec Baldwin

“When you lose custody of your child, so much of what is magical and priceless in this experience is taken away from you. The moments still occur, but you are no longer there to share them. You find yourself constantly wondering what your child is doing now. An overwhelming pain comes from the knowledge that she is learning life through so many people’s eyes, but least of all your own.”

“You want to share your own perspective on life, to influence your child just as your parents influenced you. Above all you want to give your child the gifts of time and attention, but your opportunities become dramatically limited.” -Alec Baldwin in an excerpt from his memoir, A Promise to Ourselves: A Journey Through Fatherhood and Divorce.
