mom dad boundaries
I guess if you are making more money than your mom and dad, you can set your own boundaries.
mom school kids
My mom sent me to regular high school because she wanted me to have that experience and not say that I missed out, but I didn't like it at all. I'm more comfortable in the world that I'm in, I grew up in it so when I get around normal kids in regular high school I don't know what to do. I feel more secure in an adult environment.
family sister mom
I consider my mom and all my sisters my friends.
mom
My mom always bails me out of things when I get in trouble.
allowed date
I have never actually had a real boyfriend, because I am not allowed to date yet.
learned marriage relationships
I've been through a marriage, and I'm still very fond of my ex-husband; but if I've learned anything, it's that relationships are about compromise.
cracks expecting fourteen glad people thank walk
People are expecting me to still be fourteen years old. It cracks me up, especially when people see me walk by with my husband. They're like, 'What? You're married? You're not old enough to be married.' Thank you. I'm glad that you think that.
bikes courage people spin worked
I used to be so intimidated by spin classes. I'd always go by and see people on their bikes looking so intense. But one day my sister and I worked up the courage to go in, and now we're hooked!
harness horror hung lucky neck noose work wrapped
I don't know how I didn't kill any one of my sisters. For this one horror film we were making, I made my own harness for my sister. I wrapped her in all these ropes, but then also put a noose around her neck and hung her from a tree. Now I think, 'What if my harness didn't work?' I'm so lucky that nothing ever happened.
alienate audience hard supportive tiptoe
I always think it's hard for any young actor to make that transition to more grown-up roles. Because you don't want to alienate your audience who has been supportive of you for so many years, so you kind of have to tiptoe through that process.
age chance filled filming forth kids loved people school
Having to go back and forth between school and filming would sometimes be frustrating because I loved school. It was my chance to be around other people my age. But when you're leaving school to go to a set that's filled with kids your age, then it's fine.
people
When you have people catering to you non-stop, you lose it. You need someone to kick you in the butt every now and then!
dancing love sexy wearing
I just feel so sexy when I'm salsa dancing and wearing the salsa clothes. I love dancing, and the salsa is just so sexy.
Honestly, I usually have way more guy friends than girlfriends.
