Elton John Says Fatherhood Has Made Him A Nicer Person

 

eltonjohn-6-e1353202141321Everything I thought might be annoying about children turned out to be not annoying at all. I thought I would be temperamental with them, but if they misbehave, it’s just because they’re kids. I love every second of it. It’s helped make me a nicer person and it’s helped settle me down. It’s helped me musically, too, because I’m so happy in my own skin.” 

— Entertainer Elton John asked about the surprises he’s encountered as a gay father, in an interview published in the October 4 issue of Entertainment Weekly
