Put your kids first: Andre

Singer Peter Andre, who has recently been blessed with a baby girl, says the best parents are those who put their children first.

The 40-year old, who already has two children - Junior, eight, and Princess, six - with ex-wife Katie Price, was sharing parenting advice with singer Gary Barlow, reports contactmusic.com.

"I had this chat with Gary Barlow - he won Father of the Year title last year and I had it the two years before. We discussed what makes a good parent, and the answer is simple, no one does it the right or wrong way, you put your kids first, you're a good parent," Daily Mirror newspaper quoted Andre as saying.

"I'm much easier and more lenient with my kids than my parents were with me, but it doesn't make me a worse parent, it's my way," he added.
