I was actually raised around a lot of children. So, I'm very comfortable around children.

We're living in a time when parenting is not at all mirroring the way I was parented. For me, I just followed my parents around on their errands; when they were busy on the phone, I was quiet. It's a different kettle of fish these days: They run the house, and you listen to their music, and you go to their appointments.

I'm really terrible with small children; they're small, noisy, irritating, damp and soggy.

I was really scared to stay home alone when I was kid, and I would freak out whenever there was a noise after my parents left.

In fact at home I sometimes like to be quiet and hear the sounds of the world outside.

Sometimes I still go round the house making weird noises and stuff, so in that aspect, I haven't grown up!

Somehow, since I became a family, every minute in which I am alone and not listening to two kids screaming in stereo feels like a vacation.
