Bruce Willis: "I'd like to have some more kids"

Die Hard actor Bruce Willis, 52, revealed to Britain’s Independent newspaper that he would like to have more kids despite his age. Willis has three daughters with ex-wife, actress Demi Moore - Rumer, 17, Scout, 14 and Tallulah, 12.

He explains his role as a dad: "I love that I have three girls, and I couldn’t be happier. Being a good dad is more important to me than anything. I tell them about drugs and alcohol because it’s important to expose them to the truth, all the better to protect them. Children of famous people are saddled with great responsibility. It’s a problem. People watch their every move."

On the possibility of a re-marriage and more children, Bruce comments: "I don’t know if I’ll ever marry again, although I don’t rule it out. I’d like to have some more kids. I don’t know if that’s possible or not."

hey Bruce if you are looking for a baby mama??? :o )
He just gets better with age! I hope he has more babies he looks like a good daddy.

Why does he feel the need as a 52-year-old man to have more children? It’s not fair to a child to bring a kid into the world when you’re in your 50s. Bruce gave his daughters the best of himself when he was in his 20s and 30s. He could be an active father. When you’re older, you’re less patient and less active, etc. Why can’t Hollywood men/women grow older without going through the baby craze?

I don’t think he’s too old at all… The father of one of my friends is in his 90′s, and he has more energy than most people I know…lol. Age is often just a number. It isn’t necessarily an indication of what kind of parent they will be. However, if a guy was already well into his 70′s or something, that might be different ;) .

I’d have his baby too!
I think he’s a great guy and dad! I hope he gets his wish one day….

My dad was 53 when I was born (it was his 2nd marriage), my mum was 40. My father had lots of energy and was healthy, apart from slight asthma, till he was in his early eighties. He passed away a few years ago, aged 86. I’m very grateful to my parents that they chose to have my brother and me :-)

Bruce actually reminds me of my dad, they’re a similar type. People live longer these days, and Bruce is fit and healthy, so I can’t see why he shouldn’t become a dad again. Life’s not over at 50. People can still have dreams. I hope his dream will come true!

An active person in your 20s and 30s can make a great parent, but it’s not a recipe for success. I don’t think it’s a critera either. Grandparents raise children. People with physical disabilities raise children. And they do a fabulous job. When you have a child you promise to love him/her unconditionally, and I don’t think there are boundaries for that.

Older parents tend to have more patience. My husband has a 29 year old AND a 9 year old with me and he says he has alot more patience the second time around.

Mom Said It

"I had to make a decision that I could sleep with every night. I did feel responsible for the young girls who I probably confused and let down. I apologize for that. But I wasn't trying to glamorize teen pregnancy."
