If we penalize mothers for denial of 'visitation time' we must also penalize fathers who don’t show up for 'visitation time.'

The issue is how to make both parents real parents despite what parenting was never designed to deal with - divorce.

And I'm like, 'it doesn't happen for everyone right off the bat.'

I love 'Child's Play 2!' I love Don Mancini. That movie has a great theme: You better listen to children. That's why I wanted to do it.

Children are the living messages we send to a time we will not see. From a biological point of view it is inconceivable that any culture will forget that it needs to reproduce itself.

'Our parents' generation had it a lot tougher than we did.
