Like most kids, you don't want to do what your folks want you to do. You've got your own thing.

I think the best thing that you can do with your kids is to talk to them like they're human beings, not like they're children and they don't know what they're doing.

Even though your kids will consistently do the exact opposite of what you're telling them to do, you have to keep loving them just as much.

There's a level of protection you need to give to your kids, and then sometimes you need to just let them figure out things on their own.

What I do, it's part of my job, but you want to bring your kids up the right way and give them everything - to be there for them and have that connection.

I think it is important to let your kids have independence and ownership. Let your kids do what they have a passion for.

We should never permit ourselves to do anything that we are not willing to see our children do.

You have to really respect what your kids are doing with their kids and how they're raising them. You can't push your way into areas where you shouldn't be saying anything. You have to always remember they're not your own kids. Play with them, love them, spoil them to death - then hand them back.

I think I've been an incredible example to my kids of what not to do.
