There's so many kids in the world who are told, 'You can't do this, you can't do that.' Those are all put-downs. I'm all about pick-ups. You have to pick people up and pay it forward.

My kids are free to do what ever they want. Because I only advise. I don't make them do anything.
If you've got a lot of children, I think you let the other children bring them up more and you just sort of step in and do stuff like every now and again.
I don't let everyone pick me up. I only let myself be picked up by whomever I want to be picked up by.
Like most kids, you don't want to do what your folks want you to do. You've got your own thing.
There is virtually nothing I wouldn't be willing to do, to try and make sure that children have a fair shake in life.
Don't handicap your children by making their lives easy.
I know it can be difficult for parents, but I really do believe that kids need to play the predominant role in the choices that go into their own space.
Once you have a kid, it's amazing how quickly people ask, 'So are you going to stop at just one?'
If you tell kids they can't have something, that's what they want.
You have to give kids from ordinary families a ladder. You have to show them there's a way out.
