When I found out I was pregnant, I was 22. It was really scary because I was working the music thing, and with a kid coming, you just can't live that life with a child.
I've been running my whole life. Running into bars, running around the world. But when you have a child, you can't run. That was a revelation.
Well-being changes as we move through life, which is why a child's version of it cannot be the same as an old person's.
Ever since I was a child I always wanted to be WWE Champion. I've been in love with sports-entertainment for my entire life, and I always wanted to do that.
Getting sober was one of the three pivotal events in my life, along with becoming an actor and having a child. Of the three, finding my sobriety was the hardest thing.
Since I was a child, my whole life has revolved around music. It's often while listening to a song that ideas for my fashion collections formed.

I'm an only child, and I think one of the sweet things about that is that my parents are really interested in every aspect of my life.
Putting babies as young as two weeks into child care for the first year of their life, for 60 hours a week, will cause their brains damage.
I didn't want to be a former child actor for the rest of my life, although in some ways I suppose I am. I am going to be that.
The force that keeps the planets revolving around the sun would be glad to handle the circumstances of your life, if only you would ask him to.
Bending over backwards does not bring you the love and attention you crave, but having your own life, your own goals and a backbone will.
As a child, I loved being onstage. I loved singing, I loved the lights, I loved the adrenaline. I even loved learning lines. I was completely obsessive.
That image of the countryside being a threatening place still exists. People continue to resist the challenge of learning about aspects of life they don't understand.
I do love nature, but I don't suppose I'd spent more time in zoos as a child than anyone else!
My mom had me when she was 16, and I was an only child, which is probably why I received a lot of love and didn't miss that my father wasn't around.
The compelled mother loves her child as the caged bird sings. The song does not justify the cage nor the love the enforcement.
Parents are supposed to give the child back to herself with love. If they've got duct tape over their eyes because of narcissism, it doesn't happen.
