I did not have a father. It was my mom who chose to be alone. She felt that she would be better off by herself with me after I was born.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I didn't have a father when I was growing up, and I vowed to be there with my kids.
I don't think I've ever come to terms with not having had a father around, and that's why I made so many mistakes with men.
I was just a kid and I didn't have a dad. That's hard, because when you're a kid, you blame yourself for everything. And I blamed myself for him not being around, for my parents not being together.
While I didn't have a father around, I did have - and what I want my children to both experience - the ability to explore, experiment and enjoy life as a kid.
I never suffered from the absence of a father. On the contrary, as a child I was more inclined to see men as a disturbing factor. It made things difficult for me when I started working as a director.
I never knew my father. He was never married to my mother; he was never a part of my life. It was just my mom, my brother and me.
I can't say I had an ideal father, and I'm not a father myself.
My mother never married my father. She was married to and divorced from another man, then she married and divorced my stepfather and then, ultimately, they ended up getting back together.
I don't think I was all that late in becoming a father.
I'm a father myself for the first time in my life, and I had very very loving parents.
