Oprah Winfrey
What do you think is the biggest mistakes parents make in raising their children?
Fred Rogers
Not to remember their own childhood. I think that the best thing that we can do is to..think about what it was like for us and know what our children are going through.
Oprah Winfrey
But you know what? It's so hard once you get to be a parent. You always say, I will never do this, when your parents are doing it to you. You say, I will never do this to my child. And then you get to our age and you forget what it was like to be this size.You really do forget.
Fred Rogers
Well, but those children can help re-evoke what it was like. That's why, when you're a parent, you have a new chance to grow.
