There is a fundamental situation in which the country has reached rock bottom that a mother can't send her children out of the house in the morning. The country has reached rock bottom and this needs to be changed.

My children are the reason I laugh smile and want to get up every morning.

My story is the story of countless millions of children whose families and nations were torn apart for money in the name of Jesus Christ.

Three groups spend other people's money: children thieves politicians. All three need supervision.

If you wait until your children are high school seniors to spring it on them that there's not a whole lot of money for school they won't have too many options.

All I wanted to do was write - at the time poems and prose too. I guess my ambition was simply to make money however I could to keep myself going in some modest way and I didn't need much I was unmarried at the time no children.

A majority perhaps as many as 75 percent of abortion clinics are in areas with high minority populations. Abortion apologists will say this is because they want to serve the poor. You don't serve the poor however by taking their money to terminate their children.

We need your help. I need your help. We need money for research. It may not save my life. It may save my children's life. It may save someone you love. And it's very important.

We need to shift from an economic organizing principle for human civilization to a humanitarian organizing principle. Making money more important than your own children is a pathological way for an individual to run their affairs and it's a pathological way for a society to run its affairs.

A drunkard would not give money to sober people. He said they would only eat it and buy clothes and send their children to school with it.

We can't go to people who have lost their job at GM and say 'Oh by the way we are going to pay money to build a road here or inoculate children there ' unless we can demonstrate that it is in America's interest. I happen to think it is.

If all the rich and all of the church people should send their children to the public schools they would feel bound to concentrate their money on improving these schools until they met the highest ideals.

For some students school is the only place where they get a hot meal and a warm hug. Teachers are sometimes the only ones who tell our children they can go from an Indian reservation to the Ivy League from the home of a struggling single mom to the White House.

I was serious about ballet for a long time but my mom got me into tap and jazz and modern and hip-hop and I was one of those over-lessoned children.

Mom worked with autistic children.

I never thought I was a great mom. I always worked. I fell in love with my children as they got older.

As a mom I understand how important it is to ensure kids start their day right and always make sure my kids have a nutritious breakfast. One in five U.S. children live in homes where food is not always available which is why I partnered with Kellogg's on their 'Share Your Breakfast' campaign which provide breakfasts to kids in need.

When you're a mom and you have three children nothing bothers you. Trust me. Who cares what people say? I've got other things to deal with.

I love kids and children and I love being a mom.

I think I've become more like my mom just because of what we're both interested in children and teaching and writing.

I always wanted to be a young mom but generations of women have worked so hard so we can have a career and wait to have children. So I say carpe diem - take advantage of that.

There is nothing better than being a parent. It is the most challenging job one could ever ask for. I love being a mom and I love being a friend to my children as well.

I was thinking that when I have children that I should always dress as a character for them so they think their mom is Alice in Wonderland or Cinderella. It would be totally messed up!
