Clay Aiken Is A 'Great Dad' 9/26/08

American Idol star Clay Aiken is a fantastic father who dotes on his baby son, according to the child's mother. Aiken finally revealed he was homosexual in the new issue of America's People magazine, as part of a photospread featuring him and his new baby son Parker, who was born in August (08).

And the baby's mother - Aiken's friend and record producer Jaymes Foster - says Aiken is the model father. Foster, who conceived via in vitro fertilization, tells People.com, "He's an incredible caregiver.

As far as changing the diapers and seeing what's wrong with (Parker) and getting him to go to sleep, Clay's a natural and he's really, really good with that.

"On a larger scale, he's the perfect person. He's been a school teacher, we have the same morals, family is very important to him and Parker means everything to us."
