Adherents of the new religious right reject the separation of politics and religion but they bring no spiritual insights to politics.

My parents were very permissive when it came to animals. As long as we earned the money to buy them and built whatever structure it was they were going to live in we could have any kind of pet we wanted. They would have let us have a rhinoceros if we could have afforded it.

My parents used to take me to the pet department and tell me it was a zoo.

I created the Women's Federation for World Peace in order to restore all that woman originally lost. You American women don't need a man in the position of grandfather parents husband elder or younger brother. You only need the true Adam.

Parents are not interested in justice they're interested in peace and quiet.

Thank God my parents had an abundance of patience.

Parents are key when it comes to keeping kids off drugs. Good parenting is the best anti-drug we have.

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.

For decades parents were told by so-called parenting 'experts' that offspring would be best raised on the belief each is special and entitled to all life has to offer.

While not impossible it is especially challenging for teenage parents to develop bonds with their children. A high percent of them were themselves children of teenage parents and have never experienced appropriate parenting.

We're living in a time when parenting is not at all mirroring the way I was parented. For me I just followed my parents around on their errands when they were busy on the phone I was quiet. It's a different kettle of fish these days: They run the house and you listen to their music and you go to their appointments.

The Golden Rule of Parenting is do unto your children as you wish your parents had done unto you!

I'm worried about parents who aren't parenting.

Parents were invented to make children happy by giving them something to ignore.

The child supplies the power but the parents have to do the steering.

Parents should not smoke in order to discourage their kids from smoking. A child is more likely to smoke when they have been raised in the environment of a smoker.

At the end of the day the most overwhelming key to a child's success is the positive involvement of parents.

The truth is that parents are not really interested in justice. They just want quiet.

Let parents bequeath to their children not riches but the spirit of reverence.

A child who is allowed to be disrespectful to his parents will not have true respect for anyone.

As parents grandparents uncles and aunts we need to start getting out into nature with the young people in our lives. Families play a key role in getting kids outside.

When a man and a woman have an overwhelming passion for each other it seems to me in spite of such obstacles dividing them as parents or husband that they belong to each other in the name of Nature and are lovers by Divine right in spite of human convention or the laws.

Music rhythms are mathematical patterns. When you hear a song and your body starts moving with it your body is doing math. The kids in their parents' garage practicing to be a band may not realize it but they're also practicing math.

I think I first realized I wanted to be in country music and be an artist when I was 10. And I started dragging my parents to festivals and fairs and karaoke contests and I did that for about a year before I came to Nashville for the first time. I was 11 and I had this demo CD of me singing Dixie Chicks and Leanne Rimes songs.
