14. Tim McGraw

The country crooner has said he gave up drinking for his daughters. He didn’t want his drinking habit to affect his parenting or his relationships. That would be an adverse affect on his life and not worth it. McGraw made a change for the better and stuck with it.

So sweet! I expect his daughters are especially lucky to be born to a man like that (who in all likelihood married a woman of similar character).

NOT trying to say it's bad to have a drink when a parent AS LONG AS the parent isn't a dysfunctional alcoholic or otherwise turn into a jackass. Tim McGraw did have such problems some years ago. Alcoholics generally strike me as being selfish (or out of control, pick one) so that his deciding to cut the crap by cutting out the alcohol for his family, especially his children, strikes me as a very good father who puts his children first, and that bodes well for his kids. And it shows real love, too.
