Jeffrey Dean Morgan might want to choose his words more carefully: his potty-mouth is rubbing off on his 22-month-old son, Gus!

"I took him to dinner the other night and he said, 'Bullsh-t!' I couldn't believe it, but at the same time, there might have been a high-five involved," the 45-year-old actor joked to Us Weekly at Friday's Winter TCA Press Tour in Pasadena, Calif.

"It made me laugh a lot. I was like, 'I really gotta start watching my language, 'cause, man, he is repeating everything he hears!'" Morgan added. "But I'm a much better father than that! It's maybe not the best story to tell, but it did make me laugh."

Morgan -- who's still going strong with former One Tree Hill actress Hilarie Burton, 29 -- also said his "new favorite thing is being a dad."

"It's been amazing," the Magic City actor told Us. I spend my whole day with him. Since we wrapped this show, I've purposely not done anything, so it's been daddy-kid time. I've let mom go and do a job, and I just really want to spend time with him."

    Considering the mother of his first son, didn't share the information that he was a dad, I think what goes on between him and his first child isn't 1) totally up to him and 2) between them.

    I'm glad he can enjoy this son and watch him grow, he got a raw deal with his first son and he seem to be such a decent, charming guy, I can imagine him giving pointer to both sons when they get older on how to get women, because he is an expert

    Morgan -- who became a first-time father when former One Tree Hill actress Hilarie Burton, 29, gave birth in March 2010 -- also said his "new favorite thing is being a dad."

    Pity he doesn't spend the same amount of time with and talking about his other kid. Lets hope this child isn't just a substitute for what he missed out with his elder son.

    Pity he doesn't spend so much time with his other kid isn't it! He probably could have experienced all this a lot sooner if he built a relationship with his other son!
