A wise parent humors the desire for independent action, so as to become the friend and advisor when his absolute rule shall cease.

Sometimes I would like the opportunity to do character-driven comedy and that's really what I was trying to do in Meet The Parents. I think in a way this is a more old fashioned type of comedy.

The best kind of parent you can be is to lead by example.

It's great to be able to connect parents with children both emotionally and through humor. I look forward to exploring family entertainment once again and examining the specifics of our day-to-day lives against the backdrop of an extraordinary adventure.

The function of a guideline isn't to tell you what kids have actually experienced; it's to provide goals.

I'm a comedian, which is the opposite of a lifestyle that equips you to be a parent.

On my albums, it's as though the parental advisory is built in.

There's something about being a parent that has, I think, made me a better comedian.

My parents are desperate, they keep saying: 'Please stop doing these angsty roles; make it easier for us.' So, yeah, I'd love to do some comedy.

It took five years to get 'Parental Guidance' made, and it was a fight every second.
