My dad let me figure out what I wanted to do on my own.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
My father seemed always to know not only what I was doing, but what I was being.
My father paid for my education; then he made it clear that I was on my own.
My parents pretty much realized that I would do whatever I wanted, and that was it, really.
My parents made me believe I could do anything I wanted to do. They were really into empowering me.
My dad wanted me to be a businessman, but I felt that wasn't for me.
I'm quite dyslexic in school. My dad let me figure out what I wanted to do on my own. My parents never really lecture me.
At the end of the day, I am not my dad and have my own journey to make.
I wanted my dad to be proud of me, and I fell into acting because there wasn't anything else I could do, and in it I found a discipline that I wanted to keep coming back to, that I love and I learn about every day.
I had to learn how to chop wood actually - I don't think my dad would have let me go chop wood in the backyard growing up.
I always knew I wanted to make my own way; I never wanted to be dependent on my father.
