“People were in my ears about what was right and what was wrong,” the Los Angeles native explained in June 2018. “I will say that now my children are teenagers, I can look at my kids and see that my parenting style worked great for my children. Different things work for different people. Every person lives a different life. There is no one experience that is the same. So go to the people you love and trust most … and really tune out the rest. You might need to turn off social media!”
