Teen Mom Amber Portwood's baby daddy Gary Shirley, saying he wants to do what's best, has decided to bring their 3-year-old daughter Leah to visit her incarcerated mother, adding his hesitance to do so earlier was not "a control thing."

"Just to clear up confusion I had to find out for my daughter amber and myself if it was best for Leah to go where her mommy is and visit," Shirley wrote on his Facebook page late Sunday. "I learned that it is the best thing for Leah and Amber."

Gary had previously told their daughter that Amber (who's serving a 5-year jail term) was away making a movie out West.

Gary wrote, "All the paperwork is finally in order so yes soon we will be visiting her. She's doing a lot better a lot of stuff has be cleared between us things have settled down... things are heading in the right direction. Thanks for support and in NO WAY was me not taking her to se her mom a control thing."
