Ours was a loving, nurturing household, but, at the same time, my parents' goal was to make all their children self-sufficient.

I believe that my parents did wonderful things for us.

I had a wonderful mother who wanted my sister and me to have everything, even though money was a very prominent thing we didn't have. But we had a very happy childhood - pretty much ideal, in fact.

I was given an enormous amount of love by my parents.

I was little there were times I wanted my parents to be normal. I wanted them to have a religion. I wanted them to have a job, like the parents of every other kid I went to school with.

Growing up, I had a very happy childhood, with two parents who are still very much together.

I'm the youngest of three sisters, and my parents have always encouraged all of us to do whatever made us happy.

I was happy as an only child, but I've always wanted to be part of a bigger family.

My parents were always very supportive and accepting. They even shared my curiosity for life, or perhaps I theirs.

One of the nicest satisfactions you can have is to be able to give something back to your parents when they've given so much to you.
