I was a very, very serious child... I was valedictorian of my kindergarten and eighth-grade class.

I'm only realizing now that I was a child actress because I always took myself so seriously.

Nobody took me too seriously but I was grown up even as a baby.

I was always a little adult. Even as a little kid, I just couldn't understand why I was surrounded by all these kids. I took things very seriously.

You can become very serious as a parent. That's got to be fought against.

Even while starting out I took things very seriously; I wasn't the sort of kid that would do a doll commercial or do a series for Nickelodeon. They asked me to do silly things, and I wasn't a silly kid.

I was studious and bookish. Not just as a child but also as a teenager. I took myself too seriously.

I was just a goofy little funny kid, who was always getting sent to the principal. It wasn't serious because I was smart. I wasn't like a true troublemaker, just rambunctious - like, talkative and trying to be funny. That was me in middle-school.

I thought I was funny as a kid.
