My mum and mad were both very generous, encouraging parents.
I was very lucky, my parents were very encouraging, and both my grandmothers. They had exquisite taste.
My father was very chic. My mum was always encouraging me. Some parents would say, 'Why don't you be a lawyer, a doctor, or something more important?' They never said that.
My parents have both done some music stuff. My family was very artist-friendly, so that was encouraging.
It's very hard to coparent when your ex or the father isn't encouraging the children in a way that both parents deserve when you are coparenting.
My parents were very well read. They were both New Englanders, not highly educated, but they had a sophisticated... they were both very humanistic, and they were sophisticated readers.
My family was very encouraging, and both of my grandparents were both beautiful singers. My grandmother was a coloratura soprano, and my grandfather was an Irish tenor in a barbershop quartet.
I was very driven to act from a very young age, and my parents were not only tolerant of that drive but also encouraging.
My dad is an art director for BBC TV shows, and my mum does screen printing workshops. Both of my parents played instruments, too, and my mum used to have crazy house parties when me and my brother were young - dub and garage would be banging through my house.
My mum's from Yorkshire and my parents aren't snotty or posh - they're very hard workers, both of them.
Both parents were very encouraging - especially my father. My father thought the sun rose and set with me. Neither one had a musical background or any musical talent. They liked classical music, but neither could carry a tune.
My parents were very encouraging in having us get into the arts, whereas I have a lot of friends that didn't have that.
My mum's parents were from Ireland, my dad's mum was American-Irish.
Not hippie - my parents were not hippies - but they were very supportive and encouraging, and that does a lot for someone, and it gives them a lot of confidence.
I definitely had creative people around me, but my parents were more just very encouraging.
I was a very imaginative child, and my parents were very encouraging of that. My sister and I would put on plays; I would write my own stories.
You do need parental guidance and I was in a great position with both my mum and dad. They split when I was a baby but even though I stayed with my mom they were both very much involved in my upbringing.
