#growing up

Growing up in the Bay Area, I played early on with these quartet groups who set guidelines for me. I remember the guys would all have the same clothes and shoes, like these uniforms. I was in awe. ↗

It was always a fantasy of mine growing up - my favorite program was always 'Little House on the Prairie' - so I always wanted to wear those looks. When I was a child, I wouldn't let my mom put me in anything but calico dresses and now... whaddaya know, every day I'm in a calico dress, basically, so it's kind of funny. ↗

When I was growing up, there was no such thing as Off-Broadway. You either got your show on or you didn't. ↗

Having loved the Stones all the time I was growing up, I wasn't about to see them go and split up. It got very close to it in the 80s, when Mick thought that Keith hated him and vice versa. ↗

I lost my passion for work. No, that's a negative statement. I just had a bigger passion for something else, for my son, and growing up with him. ↗

If a dad does his job, we don't need prisons, we don't need jails. That's what I saw growing up. ↗
