Divorce is not easy, but if you genuinely put your kids first, that dictates the civility you should show each other. What example are you otherwise?

For me, whatever age or size I've been, I have rather liked myself. The shell is not the thing at all.

I love it when somebody makes me laugh - it's what attracts me to people.

My approach to parenting is that everything is open - everything. I'm not very good at covert, or subtle, and I've had to learn timing. I do blunder in a bit.

I am a rubbish flirt.

Why would I worry about getting older - what's to moan about?

I do think you are supposed to go through wars with your child because otherwise the tearing apart that has to happen when they go off to lead their own life would be unbearable.
