After four girls in the family, Terry was praying for a boy. His prayers were answered in 2007 when their youngest child and only son, Isiah, was born.

As much as they love children, the pair revealed they were done making their own biological children. However, they went on to reveal that they were open to the possibility of adopting a sixth child. Terry confessed to US Weekly:

"I keep saying, 'We've got to wait until we're ready,' but we weren't ready for our own kids. It's weird. You're never ready... Literally, one day we're just going to have to do it!"

Terry's Approach to Parenting

Terry openly reflects on how his upbringing with an abusive father impacted his own parenting style both negatively and positively. The star once said in a speech:

"I would wake up to glass breaking, people screaming... we lived a nightmare for years. I picked up a lot of damaging things from that drama... I remember times with my daughter Azriel where I would yell at her as if she was a 30-year-old man... I constantly apologized."

Now the actor has a much softer approach including taking up playing PC games to bond with his son and even penning an open letter to him filled with advice based on his own experiences over the years.
