The cast of the highly anticipated romantic comedy Think Like a Man Too are honoring their fathers for Father’s Day.

Taraji P. Henson, Kevin Hart, Meagan Good, Gabrielle Union, LaLa Anthony, Michael Ealy, Terrence Jenkin, and Romany Malco sat down with theGrio’s Chris Witherspoon to share the best advice their fathers gave them.

“My dad would always say to me, ‘what you profess is what your possess,’” Henson said. “Or ‘get from around the people with your same problems and get around the ones with your solution.’”

“My dad used to always say, ‘don’t let anyone manipulate your direction,’” Good added.

LaLa said, “My father has always told me, ‘live your life from the inside out,’ and that has stuck with me forever. Live it your way. Make yourself happy.”

“Growing up in predominately white communities, my dad was very clear with us from the first day of school,” Union said. “I remember as a little kid, not quite understanding it, but I get it now. ‘Your gonna have to be bigger, badder, better than everyone just to be considered even, so don’t ever complain about doing the work.’”

“Don’t do drugs…my dad did drugs,” Hart added as the best advice he received from his father.

Think Like a Man Too hits theaters nationwide Friday, June 20.
