I'm attracted to how fraught the parent-child relationship is, swerving so easily between love and hostility, with almost no plausible way to end, unless someone dies.
The love you have for your child is so much greater than any challenge you'll face as a parent, and that's what helps you through.
It is time for us to focus on the issues that bring us together as a nation. Supporting parents' capacity to raise their children with the love and resources they need is simply the right thing to do.
Boys and girls, have confidence in the direction and counsel and advice of your parents and grandparents who love you more than anybody else in the world does.
I love everyone that supports me, and things can get wild at times, but my parents raised me to be grounded and to always remain humble. I think that's one of the main reasons that my fans support me.
The last thing in the world my parents would want to do is get on a stage or do a movie. They would probably rather die. But they let me be who I was, and they supported me.
I didn't come from a background of films. I didn't even really ever watch films. The fact is, my parents weren't into that stuff, and neither was I.
Don't hold your parents up to contempt. After all, you are their son, and it is just possible that you may take after them.
If you're a big Nirvana fan, a big Hole fan, then I understand why you would want to get to know me, but I'm not my parents.
We must return to optimism in our parenting. To focus on the joys, not the hassles; the love, not the disappointments; the common sense, not the complexities.
This is my life's work. It is a user's manual to the human being, a parenting book ... and how to be the best you can be.
Parents are like Kingdom, Your are the King. No matter where you stand, how Great n Rich you are! A King Is Always Known By His Kingdom.
You never know what your parents are going to say when you tell them you're getting married - especially when it's with someone they haven't met yet.
I think that discipline is so much of an important part of being a parent. Because it's very, very important to teach your children to take responsibility for their actions.
I don't like kissing on camera. It's bad enough to be caught kissing by your parents. But when you have a whole crew watching you, it's a little weird.
I don't have siblings, which is probably the biggest reason why my parents were able to give the attention to my career that they did.
It blows me away that my parents, they really weren't much into theater, but they recognized that in me. When I think about the things they did to support that, I'm blown away.
My parents were both from the East and had moved to San Francisco only so my father could go to law school there.
That children shall be compelled to receive religious instruction which is in antagonism to the wishes of their parents, is what no man with say sense of justice would suggest.
My parents weren't stereotypical and pressuring me to go to college. They mentioned it a lot and constantly, but it wasn't a do or die thing, like, 'You have to do this or you're done.'
Both my parents are English and I was born in West Africa, and I moved around as a kid, lived in Bristol, lived in Buckinghamshire and Surrey as a kid, and then moved when I was 16.
