It's a parent's dream come true to watch your sons play at the highest level of college basketball.
My father always said, 'Malala will be free as a bird.'
I'd always imagined that one day I would be a father, but mostly it was off my radar. I admired friends who had somehow figured out how to cross that threshold.
I want my kids to grow up to be a useful citizen.
I hope my child will be a good Catholic like me.
My father was a studio musician, played for a lot of people like Frank Zappa and a lot of R&B bands, and was always gone doing that. Then when he was home, he was practicing. And so I always saw it, and I always wanted to do what he did.
When I was in third grade, I promised my mom that I would get her a pink Cadillac Escalade.
I need all my kids to be educated and wealthy.
If I could, I would like my son to study in Jamshedpur, where I did my schooling.
I think it would be pretty cool if my kids were super kids.
I would have 47 kids if I thought I could get away with it. I love children.
Acting was something fun that my dad did, but baseball is what he really wanted to do.
The idea that children are passive repositories to be shaped by their parents has been massively overstated. A child's peer group is a far greater determinant of its development and achievements than parental aspiration.
Yes, I want kids. I don't know that I'll ever be ready. But, I'll certainly want them. I'll have them regardless of whether I am ready, I think. I just don't have a timeframe on it yet.
When my kids grow up, my goal is someday, someone will come up to them and say, 'Your dad was an amazing person.' Not saying I was an amazing fighter but a genuine person. That's what I strive for.
We all share a common goal - we want our children to succeed.
Parents aren’t the people you come from. They’re the people you want to be, when you grow up.
I remember watching the Olympics at home as a kid. It was one my Dad's dreams to win an Olympic medal.
My father who passed away told me that his dream is to watch me playing at a World Cup and I want to make my dad proud.
I have been dreaming of the day Farrah would graduate from college since the day she was born. When I was pregnant, all of my friends were just starting their first year of college.
I just hope it grows into where it was before because I want my son to see it. I want him to have a positive memory of it going forward, so he can be proud of his daddy.
I always wanted to be like my dad.
I have a daughter who's 11 years old. Maybe she'll grow up independent and really really heavy and become a movie star and she'll play me in my life story.
My father wanted me to become a doctor.
I was sent to a school because my father was already aware that his days were numbered, and he was anxious for me to acquire a good education and follow in his footsteps.
