When I spend time with my kids, I'm always thinking about what I want to teach them. I don't give a shit about their school grades, I care about how they show up in the world. I just don't want them to ever try to be somebody for me because I don t need to be anybody for them to love them deeply.

00:00:02.120 My kid comes to me and says,
00:00:03.340 look, I got my report card.
00:00:04.540 I go, do you care about what's on there?
00:00:06.120 Because I didn't create that test.
00:00:07.720 I don't care about that.

00:00:14.600 One thing, if you met my kids,
00:00:15.940 you would notice real quick

00:00:18.280 They've been doing it since they were two.
00:00:19.440 Why?

00:00:23.060 I go, cool, what's his name?
00:00:24.220 What's her name?
00:00:24.760 Well, I don't know.
00:00:25.280 And it didn't take them long to figure it out.
00:00:27.040 So now they'll run back.
00:00:28.720 I made new friends.
