Daddy was real gentle with kids. That's why I expected so much out of marriage, figuring that all men should be steady and pleasant.
My commitment is to my kids and my mum and I'm having a whale of a time.
Stay in school and band, kids! It had its nerdy moments, and I always felt like I wanted to do something more with it.
If my time with my kids is shorter than it was yesterday, it's better than nothing.
One of the things I realized is that if you do not take control over your time and your life, other people will gobble it up. If you don't prioritize yourself, you constantly start falling lower and lower on your list, your kids fall lower and lower on your list.
We don't mind being ripped apart, but don't rip the songs apart. They're like our kids.
Kids get influenced by other kids.
My mother's father taught English literature. When I was about ten or eleven, I could recite Macaulay's 'Lays of Ancient Rome.' While other kids were playing pedestrian war games, I'd be Horatius keeping the bridge.
I have a lot of kids in my district who haven't been to the beach, much less Washington, D.C., and that's 20 miles away.
I was a good surfer because we grew up a block from the water, and my father took us to the ocean the way other fathers take their kids to the park.
The kids are so much fun. I'm always taking a look over at what they're doing because it reminds me of when I was so small before.
All I do is play football, eat, sleep, play with my kids, play football.
Right now, I do not like kids at all. I mean, I love my fans and everything, but when you have kids following you around all day, it's like, 'Ugh, kids!' Maybe that will change when I get older.
I hope that they enjoy the movie. Don't be critical. Don't expect to get the same feelings you got when you watched the series when you were 10 years old. Let your kids see it and experience it on their own.
I'm an actress and I want to act, and I'm a mom and I want to be with my kids, and it's trying to find a way to do both.
This whole generation of parents - I'm guilty of it too - does too much for their kids.
I love Montclair. I loved it; it was great for my kids. I raised them all there, brought them up through the Montclair school system, and two of my daughters went to Montclair State.
When my kids are in college, maybe I'll drag my fishnets and high heels out.
When you have a magazine like 'Vogue,' you know a lot of kids are going to follow your pictures.
My kids are not that interested in my movie career, by the way. My son, in particular, never talks about it. He just wants me as his dad.
I really don't get nervous when I perform -it's more of an exciting feeling than anything else. But put me in a classroom with kids my age and have me take a test and yeah, I'll be nervous!
Technology is just a tool. In terms of getting the kids working together and motivating them, the teacher is the most important.
Certainly, if it had been anything other than an HBO show I'd probably still be in Mexico now with a Mexican wife and kids.
If you're a good parent, see the changes that are happening in your kids.
I get tired of hearing people, well-meaning people, talking about African-American kids or Hispanic kids as if they're all the same. Which isn't true. There is a very diverse group of people in both groups in terms of income, objectives in life, aspirations, cultural wants, habits, all the things that make us unique Americans.
If kids can learn how to make a simple Bolognese sauce, they will never go hungry. It's pretty easy to cook pasta, but a good sauce is way more useful.
My goal is to make my kids as happy as possible.
I feel like I have an amazing support team, between my husband and my nanny and my parents, who are very involved with my kids. I also have an incredible creative team with my manager, agent and publicist.
Most people would think if you're the prime news anchor, then you should sort of be this Edward R. Murrow, Clark Kent guy with the family and 2.5 kids - or the perky, cute yet smart Katie Couric.
Yes, there was nothing else to do to get you high. I mean, there was, but white kids didn't hear about it.
I love my wife, I love my kids.
Let children read whatever they want and then talk about it with them. If parents and kids can talk together, we won't have as much censorship because we won't have as much fear.
Beckham is unusual. He was desperate to be a footballer. His mind was made up when he was nine or ten. Many kids think that it's beyond them. But you can't succeed without practising at any sport.
We know that if we can prevent kids from trying drugs in their teenage years, we dramatically reduce the likelihood that they will go on to have problems later in life.
Preacher's kids usually go one way or the other - way wild, or they follow in their dad's footsteps.
Grime reminds me, if there is an echo, of sort of near enough like Liverpool in the very early Sixties. It's a lot of kids obsessed with music - obsessed with it.
