I applaud anything that can take a kid away from a PlayStation or a Gameboy. That is a miracle in itself.

Growing up, there wasn't much emphasis on being nice or naughty. As a family, there wasn't much discipline. It was more relaxed at home, which I'm grateful for.

Every kid needs to say, 'I want what my mom and dad have.'

My parents have always had this philosophy that overindulging your children is one of the worst things you could do as a parent. It's something that was hammered into my head growing up.

Moms, you should parent in whatever way works for your family and spend less time worrying about other people's perceptions of how you're doing.

My dad never wanted to push what he did on us. It was more, for him, if you chose to do this, then we're going to do it, and we're going to get it right. It was, 'I know how to do it. I'm going to teach you how to do it because I want you to be good at it.'

I don't know, my parents were pretty open about a lot of things, especially my mom. And any kind of little crazy thing I was into, she was very supportive of. You know, whether it was BMX bike racing or being in the Boy Scouts or surfing or anything else, she always seemed to sort of support it.

If my children want to pursue their dreams, I will always support them.
