My mother told me to raise my kids with calculated neglect. They get their self-worth from doing what they can do and not having everything done for them.

Red Dawn was really the most fun I ever had making a movie, because I love Westerns, and I love the idea of being a tomboy, and riding horses and shooting guns.

So when my film career took off, I always felt like I was trying to play catch-up because I hadn't studied acting before. I didn't know how to manage money or my career. When I look back, I think I was a little bit shell-shocked.

I don't even know how to swim!

And I definitely gravitate toward people who use laughter to pull themselves out of the abyss.

I think it's really hard to understand the depths and the power of the love that someone has for their children unless you really have children.
