There are a lot of things that you don't realize that your parents are going through when you're a kid.
I am lucky to have three daughters who are completely different. I look at my daughters and I have different relationships with all three and there are parts of each personality that are very special.
I think there's a time to work, and everyone has to kind of adjust. And then there's a time to relax, and be the mom or take the kids on vacation when you need to wind down. So it's a matter of...
And when people give me their word, I listen to them.
And at 19, you think you rule the world, and you can control things. And a lot of times, you don't.
My parents are both teachers, so we had the summers off.
Well, my mom taught public school music for almost 40 years. And she's about 5 feet - and very mighty. And she would control her kids a lot by giving them the eye, or the stare.
