You either become like your parents or you become the opposite of your parents. And I like to think that I'm the opposite of my parents.

My parents are opposites who balance each other out.

I've only recently realized that I have a radically different relationship with my parents than a lot of people.

At some point, you realize your parents are human. They make the best decisions they can with the options available to them.

It's interesting when you're old enough to take a new, objective approach looking at your parents, frame them in a way where you are actually taking yourself out of the equation and just look at the things that are true about their life.

It takes a long time to appreciate one's parents.

I had a very diametrically opposite set of parents.

When you become a parent, you look at your parents differently. You look at being a child differently. It's an awakening, a revelation that you have.

The thing you realize as you get older is that parents don't know what the Hell they're doing and neither will you when you get to be a parent.

The influence of one's parents is powerful and permanent.
