What is the most valuable title for Miami Heat guard Dwyane Wade—being named seven-time NBA All-Star or an Olympic gold medalist?
Neither of the above.Being “a good father” is the most important thing to the 30-year-old, according to Wade's new book, A Father First: How My Life Became Bigger than Basketball.
The book was released last month, and is now among The New York Times best-seller list.It talks about Wade's life in and out of basketball and his relationship with his two sons, Zaire, 10, and Zion, 5.
“I'm blessed every day with the joy of hearing fans and announcers call my name.Not to mention various nicknames—from ‘D-Wade’ to ‘Flash’ to just ‘No.3’.But none of that comes close to the thrill of hearing my sons call out my most favourite name of all, ‘Daddy!’ Anytime, anywhere, any day,” he writes in his new book.
Wade says he was determined to be a good father because of his experience growing up with divorced parents on the South Side, Chicago's poor neighbourhoods.
When he was a kid, his mother was addicted to drugs.His sister could do nothing but take 10-year-old Dwyane to live with his father, away from the drug deals and police raids(搜捕) he had grown accustomed to.
Wade admits the new environment allowed him to play basketball with his stepbrothers and their friends.
After divorcing Siohvaughn Funches-Wade, his high school sweetheart and the children's mother, in 2010, Wade gained joint(共同的) custody(监护权) of the kids.
However, he had a bitter court battle before gaining full custody of them the next year.
For Wade, breaking the cycle of “babies__having__babies”—one that he says ran in his family and his African-American community—was at first a priority(优先事项) and then a challenge.He wanted to be the best full-time dad he could be.
