Fortunately for me, my grandfather gave us a life I could never dream of. He was my high school football coach, my best friend, my school teacher - really my dad.
Parents are responsible for the sexual education of their children.
I have found having my dad as my North Star has worked well for me.
My father didn't tell me how to live; he lived, and let me watch him do it.
My older brother bought textbooks and was able to teach himself enough to go to college. When I was 16, he returned and told me to do the same thing.
I felt I had a responsibility to do the right thing. And then I wanted to do the right thing by my family and there was no handbook.
I think it's important to talk to my sisters when I have a big decision to make.
I didn't learn music because I wanted to become famous or earn a lot of money. It was to follow my father's advice and learn as much as I could about music.
When it comes to advice, I always consult my father regarding everything, as he has seen the industry inside out, and he is the best person to guide me.
I'm really close to my family, and we talk through things. My parents are so amazing, they're brilliant. We try to take one step at a time and be wise about the decisions we make and keep our values and the things that are important.
I was fortunate to have a dad who was very involved, very present, very wise.
You know, I'm a father. I'm a brother. I'm a son. And I'm a grandfather. So many times I have to be the intermediary, the person to referee and help solve disputes and to protect and to guide.
Dad always said, 'Get a degree and do something on your own before you start movies.' He always kept me grounded, telling me the realities of the business and the struggles even the legends had to go through.
I'm not a role model. I say parents should parent and monitor their kids.
I've heard my father say that the man is to be the priest, the provider, and the protector of his family. He's the priest because he is the spiritual leader, monitoring and growing the spiritual temperature of his family.
I think being a good Christian father, your responsibility varies with the age and the stage that your children are at.
My brother, who's my acting coach, he can be like, "That sucked, Chloe. You need to pick that up. You're not thinking right now. Seriously, think." It's a good harsh reality, because my family keeps me very grounded.
I had a great teacher in my brother and my dad, and to be able to follow Kurt's footsteps has helped out a whole bunch.
A mother's role is God-ordained. Mothers are to conceive, bear, nourish, love, and train. They are to be helpmates and are to counsel with their husbands.
Throughout my journey in basketball, I always have someone to talk to in my father. I know how hard he had to work as an athlete.
Families are the compass that guide us. They are the inspiration to reach great heights, and our comfort when we occasionally falter.
My mum reads every script before I go for it.
I would say the most help I got was from my dad. My dad is a civil engineer in Switzerland; he's 90 years old now, so he's no longer active as a civil engineer, but still a very active person.
In retrospect, golf for me was an apparent attempt to emulate the person I looked up to more than anyone: my father. He was instrumental in helping me develop the drive to achieve, but his role, as well as my mother's, was one of support and guidance, not interference.
What I want to do in life is just be a respectful man and just take care of my children and guide my family in the right direction. I'm not looking to be a chairperson, I'm not looking to be ambassador or anything in that capacity.
