When moms stayed home, it was easier just to let the kids play around the house.

There are so many women out there who are single moms, really not by choice, and doing it and making it work every day.

It’s important for moms to have alone time. However, that’s the first thing that goes on a busy day. Fortunately for me, because of my job, I have to find the time to do it. At least that’s the way my mind sees it. I have to exercise to be able to fit the clothes and book the jobs.

My fan base is really, really young. They’re the youngest demographic that you can track on YouTube: 13- to 17-year-old females. But the fan mail that I get in my P.O. box, they’re all from moms and from kids who are two years old, three years old, four years old.

I’m inspired by all those women in the ’60s – they look so put-together and cool at the same time, and they all were moms – moms and career women. I do wear heels, though. Pretty much always. I need to feel good about myself, so even if it’s casual, I’ll slip them on.

I hope all the kids out there who don’t like listening to their mothers, who yell and scream at them, that moms are always right just so you guys know.

We’ve overmedicated kids.

That is wrong on every single level.

For Christian faith not to be idle in the world, the work of doctors and garbage collectors, business executives and artists, stay-at-home moms or dads and scientists needs to be inserted into God’s story with the world.

I think that’s something people need to convey because you see all these celebrity moms out there, and the perception is they can do it all, but they have sooo much help.

Moms, you should parent in whatever way works for your family and spend less time worrying about other people’s perceptions of how you’re doing.

David Stern should get with the mothers of the NBA and let the moms decide what the dress code should be. I asked my mother if I could wear a chain, and she told me yeah. So I do stuff that my parents allow me to do.

Back in 2008, after we’d won the election, no one really expected me to keep teaching. But I couldn’t just walk away… So I did both. For eight years, that was my life’s dichotomy. State receptions – and midterms. Dinner with the most powerful man on earth – and study sessions with single moms.

Working moms, and increasingly working dads, don’t want a government handout, but they do need a hand up.

With girls, there’s an insecurity that starts early on. It hangs around them, like some annoying kid from down the block who won’t take the hint and go home when dinnertime comes. And moms are usually not great at giving their daughters confidence.

‘Mars Needs Moms’ was motion capture, where you walk into a space that’s essentially a black box with cameras everywhere. It was so technical.

I am thankful for moms who try their best, give their all and bless their children with something priceless.
