News

The Dawson’s Creek alum, who shares kids Olivia, 11, Joshua, 10, Annabel, 8, Emilia, 6, Gwendolyn, 4, and Jeremiah, 8 months, with wife Kimberly Van Der Beek, wrote, “None of us are perfect fathers. None of us were raised by perfect fathers. Because no one was born perfect.”

He continued, “I feel like the best we can do is show up, as fully and consistently as we possibly can… and have the courage to listen with an open heart to where we’ve misunderstood, misstepped, or just flat-out missed an opportunity for connection. Then… we’ll have exemplified for our children a growth process that’ll allow them to evolve with patience, self-love, and forgiveness. Because, no matter how much we love them… they won’t go through life perfect, either.”

James added, “#HappyFathersDay to all the dads out there learning on the job, and constantly pushing the boundaries of their best. And to my dad… thanks for the example.”
