We have reached a very cynical era of comedy. The Muppets have proven, for 40 years, that you can get laughs without ever doing it at someone else's expense, and I think that that's a really important thing for kids to realize.
I am afraid we must make the world honest before we can honestly say to our children that honesty is the best policy.
if we center our lives on BMWs, RVs, VCRs, PCs and the other acronyms of consumerism, we cannot expect our children to do otherwise.
I'm concerned about the insidious influence of the media's bad messages that undermine the lessons parents try to instill in their sons and daughters.
If we want our children to value education, then we must show our appreciation for knowledge.
I think it's most important for children to understand the concept of respect and manners and also work ethic. I have a responsibility to those who came before me.
It seems to me of great importance to teach children respect for life.
We have taught our children that meanness gets you nowhere in life.
In a wider sense, I'm terrified about my kids coming down to breakfast and saying, 'Trump said this and they've voted him president?' How do you explain to your children how to behave as a man in this world?
