My parents didn't have the opportunities that my wife and I have now, from a quality of life standpoint.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
My parents weren't extremely successful financially, but they were happy people. They gave me confidence.
I come from a middle class family, and my parents weren't too supportive of my career choices.
My parents had a wonderful marriage, but it was a very dependent relationship. My mother was entirely dependent on my father because that's how it was in those days.
My parents grew up working class, but in that way that working class families do, they spent a fortune on education to better me.
My parents, who were split up, were so good at keeping my environment strong and keeping everything around me not focused on the fact that we were poor. They got me culture. They took me to museums. They showed art to me. They read to me. And my mother drove two hours a day to take me to University Elementary School.
My parents didn't want me to go into show business. They were afraid of what would happen if I didn't succeed. They wanted me to get married and have babies. I never saw marriage and family in my life.
My parents had a great marriage. Interestingly, it made it harder for me in relationships because I knew what a good relationship looked like.
My parents were amazing people who had no business being together - and they knew it.
I went to school and made good grades and went to college. So I was afforded an opportunity through my parents' hard work that most people don't have.
I was very lucky with the parents I was blessed with. I don't think it could have worked out any better. They've always been so understanding of me and understanding of what I want to do.
