Whether your mother is a novelist like mine or a third-generation military wife, the idea of a son or daughter being in mortal danger is terrifying.

I was certainly typecast for a while on television because I was always being cast as the 'compassionate mother' or whatever.

Getting typecast is a dangerous thing to do.

The only place that I'd be worried about being typecast is the independent film world.

I don't subscribe to the thinking that being typecast is a bad thing.

One of the biggest dangers in Hollywood is becoming typed.

As far as I'm concerned, there's no job more important on the planet than being a mom.

I had such a great mom and I know that I'd never be that mom. I wouldn't want to bring a child into this world unless I could be.

Being a mother is no longer a liability, and being a woman is no longer a pre-existing condition! That's what change looks like.
