Quote by David Cassidy
As a father, I do everything my dad didn't do. My son Beau's birth changed my life.
Summary
This quote implies that the speaker's own experience of having a child, specifically his son Beau, prompted a change in his behavior and priorities compared to those of his own father. The speaker acknowledges the absence or shortcomings of his father's actions and seeks to fill that void, taking on the responsibilities and providing the care that he believes his own dad did not offer. The birth of his son is seen as a pivotal moment that reshaped his perspective and motivated him to be a better parent than his own father was to him.
