The interesting part is that most of the kids I speak to have grown up watching 'Full House', so they feel like they know me and can talk to me.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Also, I realized a lot of kids are listening to me. Whether I want to be or not, they're looking up to me.
As a kid, I was told to talk as much as possible.
Kids are more genuine. When they come up and want to talk to you, they don't have an agenda. It's more endearing and less piercing to your aura.
The kids don't really have any part of my television life. Fortunately, there aren't many times when show business intrudes on our family existence.
Kids are watching us. I experience it every single day. They hang on my every word, what I wear, what I say.
It's funny, my kids and I live together, and I have a lot of actor friends. So my kids think everyone is on television every now and again, since everyone they know pops up here, but there's a whole rap of things they won't watch until they're 16 or 17.
All kids want from their dad is for them to be around - and to show up when they say they're going to show up.
It's always special when you're young and you have a vision for something you want to do, and somebody takes a moment to connect with you. Now if there are kids on the set I try to talk to them for a bit.
I have never had other kids in the house... I had a huge collection of marbles, and they all had names, which I think concerned my parents. I used to go and sweep outside and talk to myself, and my mum's friends would be over and say, 'Do you realise she is talking to herself?'
I would let my kids watch this stuff way before I'd let them watch something like 'Full House' that I think would make them stupid.
