BLACK LOOKS AHEAD TO SON'S TEENAGE REBELLION

Movie star JACK BLACK is overjoyed at becoming a first-time father, but is already preparing for teenage rebellion and parental mishaps. Black's wife, musician TANYA HADEN, gave birth to the couple's first child SAMUEL last month (JUN06). And the KING KONG actor is bracing himself for fatherhood. The 37-year-old says, "I'm excited and I'm taking it seriously. I'll probably do just one film a year for the next couple of years. "And we'll give him good values. I don't go to synagogue but that doesn't mean I'm not a spiritual person. I'll encourage spiritual conversations with Sam if he wants to talk about how heavy the universe is. I like those sorts of conversations. "I don't know what kind of dad I'll be. I guess I'm just going to play it by ear. I haven't read any books on how to be a good father, but I'll just try to be honest with him, whatever. "It sounds like a train wreck already, doesn't it? Oh boy, I mean, it's going to be scary when my son's a teenager. I'm going to be in trouble. I'll just have to keep a watchful eye on him, I guess and hope for the best."
