Zitat des Tages von Lisa Ling:
We are such a product of our upbringing and environment.
Parents are working more than ever before and unable to monitor what kids are eating at home, and schools are selling astronomical amounts of junk food in order to supplement shrinking budgets. It's a ticking time bomb, and America's children are exploding.
The city of Oia is the most magnificently romantic place I've ever been.
Make your relationship your number-one priority.
I'm a big Ping-Pong addict. I love it.
I'm determined to raise a strong girl.
We're doing a partial green nursery and trying as hard as we can to do as much organic stuff for our nursery as we can.
I had a planned C-section, and I cried the entire day before I had the baby.
My husband and I try to spend some time every night that I'm home talking without distractions.
I don't remember my first trip, but I do remember when my mom took me to Disney World in Orlando. It wasn't the rides but Epcot Center that most fascinated me. It made me want to see those countries that are represented there for real.
I started running when I was 21 years old and studying in China.
It is said that the way to prevent obesity is not to allow kids to become overweight in the first place. But it takes a multi-pronged approach that has to start with parents. Kids are just too young to understand the consequences of obesity.
At the end of the day, TV is supposed to be entertaining. But it's important for me that there's some take-away value from it.
I hadn't wanted to have a kid until I met my partner.
I honestly never had the biological need to reproduce until I met my husband. But by the same token, even if we were unsuccessful, we were totally okay with adopting.
I think that's something people need to convey because you see all these celebrity moms out there, and the perception is they can do it all, but they have sooo much help. And it's kind of an unfair image to project for many women, because it is really hard, and if you have help, you should indicate you have help.
Try to accomplish things you have always dreamt of while you can. I know it sounds cliche, but the biggest lesson I have learned is that life is precious; enjoy it while it lasts.
I started working in television quite young, actually, and I definitely felt very insecure about what I looked like.
I don't know that I'm going to entirely do cloth diapers. I'd like to be ambitious about it, but in all honesty, I can't say that I will.
There are so many factors to lead to a child becoming obese.
I hope my desire to travel so much isn't forever because it's not the most conducive lifestyle for a relationship or a family by any means.
I used to be so twig skinny that I couldn't eat enough, because I was just naturally skinny. Until I went to China.
Coming from an Asian culture, I was always taught to respect my elders, to be a better listener than a talker.
I never run hills. My quads are already big enough. I don't run to build muscle; I do it for cardio.
Personally, I've always known that I wanted to go back to work because I'm confident, and I'm certain that my daughter will have a better mother in me if I'm doing the things that I'm excited about and that I'm passionate about.
Our time on Earth is so random.
When you take the time to understand why your parents did the things they did, you stand a good chance of learning more about your own behavior.
There are so many kids in this world, and in this country, that need homes. And so we're perfectly content to look into adoption one day, if for some reason we aren't able to have a biological child.
