Striking the right balance is a tough juggling act for all parents
Speaking to MSN Movies the actor said: "I think parenthood is a wonderful balancing act - on the one hand, you want to spend as much time with your children as possible.
"On the other hand, you want to set an example for them to see that you're fulfilled in your life and in your work.
"I want my daughter to grow up and do something that she's passionate about and I hope that the example that her mother and I set will help her do that.
"At the same time, I don't want to let work take over and become my priority in life. Striking the right balance is a tough juggling act for all parents - and it's something we all struggle with."
