" Josh Lucas has revealed that he secretly helped raise an ex-girlfriend&amp;#039;s child for the past 20 years.  The Life As We Know It star told WENN that he greatly enjoys his role as a father figure and has built up a wealth of parenting experience, despite not having any children of his own.  He explains: &amp;quot;When I was 19 years old I met an 18-year-old woman with a seven-month-old baby and I&amp;#039;ve raised him ever since... We didn&amp;#039;t know each other that well and we were raising a family together.  &amp;quot;He was learning to walk and talk and ride a bike. He was going through breastfeeding and I&amp;#039;m saying to myself, &amp;#039;How am I here? What is this about?&amp;#039; But it&amp;#039;s been one of the greatest experiences of my life and I&amp;#039;m grateful for it to say the least.&amp;quot; "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
