Tatum Channing tells Vanity Fair he will never medicate his daughter for learning disabilities. "I truly believe some people need medication," he says. "I did not. I did better at school when I was on it, but it made me a zombie. You become obsessive. Dexedrine, Adderall. It's like any other drug. It's like coke, or crystal meth. The more you do, the less it works. For a time, it would work well. Then it worked less and my pain was more. I would go through wild bouts of depression, horrible comedowns. I understand why kids kill themselves. I absolutely do. You feel terrible. You feel soul-less. I'd never do it to my child."

On the preperation for his daughter, Tatum Channing tells VF:

"I don't think you can prepare. It's a bit of a freestyle," Channing Tatum tells Vanity Faircontributing editor Rich Cohen about raising children with his wife, Jenna Dewan. His parents, Tatum says, set a good example "for better and worse. They weren't perfect. I don't know anyone who did have perfect parents. It's provided me with lessons I'll try to improve upon when I'm up to bat. I'm just going to be a good friend to my kid. One thing I definitely want to change is that whole 'I don't want you to make the same mistakes' mentality. My dad didn't have much money growing up; he didn't have much of an education. He forced that on me, and I didn't want it."
