You know how it's almost impossible for kids to not say what they think? That's me. I have to make the conscious effort to be situationally appropriate.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
You can't say one thing and behave another way. Kids learn more from watching you in life than what you say to them.
I didn't think I had anything particular to say, but I thought I might have something to say to children.
I often try to tell kids to think about all the people who love you, don't cry over the one person who doesn't.
I am often stunned and charmed by the simple brilliance of what children say. But you have to be willing to listen.
You don't want to give kids an idea that they might not have thought of.
I'm just so against kids being on Twitter because they are not thinking about the ramifications of what they are saying or the emotion of how they say it.
Sometimes random things that you wouldn't think mean anything mean so much to them. With kids, you can say, 'Let's go pick some flowers' or 'There's a snail. Let's investigate that.'
I don't particularly like children. That sounds awful, but I have nothing to say to them.
Look, I think if you talk down to a kid or aim specifically at a kid, most kids aren't gonna like it, really, because most kids can feel when you are being patronizing.
I abhor 'baby talk.' I speak to kids like I would any other person, and they seem to respond to it.
