- I barely have time for my own children. To adopt more children and not have time for them, that would be poor parenting on my part.
- Mary J. Blige on Parenting
- I came to parenting the way most of us do - knowing nothing and trying to learn everything.
- Mayim Bialik on Parenting
- I cannot think of any need in childhood as strong as the need for a father's protection.
- Sigmund Freud on Parenting
- I don't think children's inner feelings have changed. They still want a mother and father in the very same house they want places to play.
- Beverly Cleary on Parenting
- I feel very blessed to have two wonderful, healthy children who keep me completely grounded, sane and throw up on my shoes just before I go to an awards show just so I know to keep it real.
- Reese Witherspoon on Parenting
- I figure that if the children are alive when I get home, I've done my job.
- Roseanne Barr on Parenting
- I get whatever placidity I have from my father. But my mother taught me how to take it on the chin.
- Norma Shearer on Parenting
- I grew up with no money. My kids will grow up with a lot of money and so it's really important to me, and it will always be a part of my parenting, to keep them conscientious and connected socially to other people.
- Ryan Phillippe on Parenting
- I had no idea that mothering my own child would be so healing to my own sadness from my childhood.
- Susie Bright on Parenting
- I had three children while doing a show, as demanding as 'Good Morning America,' so this is - you know, it's almost like I'm less daunted about motherhood, and parenting at this point in time. And I think I'm just much more fit and healthy than I was 20-years-ago.
- Joan Lunden on Parenting
- I have a neuroscience background - that's what my doctorate is in - and I was trained to study hormones of attachment, so I definitely feel my parenting is informed by that.
- Mayim Bialik on Parenting
- I have three daughters, so I can't be as tough as I want to be. When you have kids - especially daughters - they know how to work you. They're a lot smarter than we are, that's for sure. But I'll be more tough on their boyfriends.
- Tim McGraw on Parenting
- I hope to find the roles that are age appropriate but not yearning to be younger, or parenting ad nauseam.
- Debra Winger on Parenting
- I realize that of all people, I am no expert on parenting or marriage.
- Mika Brzezinski on Parenting
- I regret not having had more time with my kids when they were growing up.
- Tina Turner on Parenting
- I take my children everywhere, but they always find their way back home.
- Robert Orben on Parenting
- I take parenting incredibly seriously. I want to be there for my kids and help them navigate the world, and develop skills, emotional intelligence, to enjoy life, and I'm lucky to be able to do that and have two healthy, normal boys.
- Joan Cusack on Parenting
- I think a dad has to make his daughter feel that he's genuinely interested in what she's going through.
- Harry Connick, Jr. on Parenting
- I think I'm going to have to live vicariously through my daughter's rebellion because I certainly never did go through adolescence.
- Brooke Shields on Parenting
- I thought that once we were out of the baby stage, parenting would be a breeze.
- Tori Spelling on Parenting
- I want to have children, but my friends scare me. One of my friends told me she was in labor for 36 hours. I don't even want to do anything that feels good for 36 hours.
- Rita Rudner on Parenting
- I wasn't very good about juggling family and my career. I was interested in who was coming to the children's birthday party, what my son was writing. I was thinking about Legos.
- Jill Clayburgh on Parenting
- I would like to do another piece of fiction dealing with a number of issues: Lesbian parenting, the 1960's, and interracial relationships in the Lesbian and Gay community.
- Audre Lorde on Parenting
- I'd just as soon stay home and raise babies.
- June Allyson on Parenting
- I'm a parent, especially when you've had the intense parenting the way I had. It's all in the bank. It's all in the great experience bank. Those are your secrets. That's the stuff that makes your work rich, that's what you dip into.
- Hector Elizondo on Parenting
- I'm hosting weekend retreats all over America. It is like a 24-hour slumber party for moms. We laugh, eat, play games, get massages, win prizes, talk about parenting and even cry a bit.
- Lisa Whelchel on Parenting
- I'm torn about late parenting. I believe people should spend their twenties living and having fun and not having any regrets later. I also think people in their thirties generally make better parents but so many of my friends are having trouble - myself included - as fathers get older.
- Eric McCormack on Parenting
- I'm trying to break any chain of negative parenting that I might have survived.
- Eddie Vedder on Parenting
- I'm worried about parents who aren't parenting.
- Barbara Bush on Parenting
- I've become sort of an accidental advocate for attachment parenting, which is a style of parenting that... basically, the way mammals parent and the way people have parented for pretty much all of human history except the last 200 years or so.
- Mayim Bialik on Parenting
- I've said it before, but it's absolutely true: My mother gave me my drive, but my father gave me my dreams. Thanks to him, I could see a future.
- Liza Minnelli on Parenting
- If there is any truth to my parenting the dreamwork movement, it comes from the power of the press.
- Henry Reed on Parenting
- If you're asking your kids to exercise, then you better do it, too. Practice what you preach.
- Bruce Jenner on Parenting
- In response to our fast-food culture, a 'slow food' movement appeared. Out of hurried parenthood, a move toward slow parenting could be growing. With vital government supports for state-of-the-art public child care and paid parental leave, maybe we would be ready to try slow love and marriage.
- Arlie Russell Hochschild on Parenting
- In truth, I am a single mother. But I don't feel alone at all in parenting my daughter. Krishna has a whole other side of her family who loves her, too. And so Krishna is parented by me, but also by her grandmother and aunts and cousins and uncles and friends.
- Padma Lakshmi on Parenting
- Indeed - judicious, consistent parenting is a dream of mine. No judgements, learning space and listening carefully are my goals.
- Emma Thompson on Parenting
- It is a sad commentary of our times when our young must seek advice and counsel from 'Dear Abby' instead of going to Mom and Dad.
- Abigail Van Buren on Parenting
- It's a great mistake, I think, to put children off with falsehoods and nonsense, when their growing powers of observation and discrimination excite in them a desire to know about things.
- Anne Sullivan on Parenting
- It's a huge change for your body. You don't even want to look in the mirror after you've had a baby, because your stomach is just hanging there like a Shar-Pei.
- Cindy Crawford on Parenting
- It's hard enough to work and raise a family when your kids are all healthy and relatively normal, but when you add on some kind of disability or disease, it can just be such a burden.
- Patricia Heaton on Parenting
