Brett Young and his wife Taylor welcomed a baby girl into the world in October. Presley is now six months old, and when Brett thinks of her future, he's determined to let her choose her own path.

"You know, I hope that I don't push my kids in any one direction," he shares in a statement from his label. "It's so easy to say, but I hope that all we do is give them the opportunity to choose whatever it is that makes them happy. 


"And I think the blessing is that we've been put in a position where we can give them opportunities," he continues thoughtfully. "I'm sure that I'll probably give nudges here and there, but for the most part, I appreciate that in my upbringing, everything was available to me and I got to pick. My parents supported whatever I chose to do and so, I hope that that's how we'll parent.

"I think there's a little bit of resentment that comes with being forced to do something, even if you end up being successful and doing it for the rest of your life, if you feel like you were forced into it. So the goal is to not do that but we'll see. Wish me luck."
