Pastoral Resources

I guess if you're lucky enough not to have to pay your rent, then you or I take much more seriously the kind of work that I do, what it takes for me to leave two teenagers of my own and six stepchildren and a husband and four grandchildren.

I am the parent of teenagers, my daughters are 13 and 15, so the issue of Internet safety has been an important issue. I have been visiting middle schools to talk about some of the challenges that they face.

I get letters from kids, teenagers and young girls who just want to be Mac. I've had quite a few people actually say that they're going to become a Marine or a JAG lawyer because of me... the character. I think that's pretty cool!

Now, all the movies are for teenagers. It's very difficult for an actress to find really deep, beautiful characters to play.

I know, it's true. I've played these tortured teenagers. I can't wait to shed that image.

It's very witty and it's great to see teenage characters have control that way. And you can actually hear about sex and pot and it's okay, it's not completely bad and you can't say that to teenagers.

Just because you have teenagers in a movie doesn't make it a teen movie.

American high school students trail teenagers from 14 European and Asian countries in reading, math and science. We're even trailing France.

The groups, though, were my inspiration way back then. I liked Frankie Lyman and the Teenagers.

I find it very, very hard. He was part of the fabric of my life. We were kids together, and teenagers. We spent the whole of our lives with each other because of our music.

Hollywood has the idea that movies have to be dumb. But especially movies for or about teenagers have to be really dumb!

Teenagers who are never required to vacuum are living in one.

If you look at my audiences, even in Europe, they're hardly teenagers.

The thing that bums me out about 'The Real World' is I don't want to believe that teenagers are that stupid.
