Keep it up.  I spent all my free
 time with my daughter growing up and keeping her in 
 sports, dance and homework.  It is not easy but it turned out just great.  She graduated from Clemson
 University, married a great guy, two boys and I am
 a single male proud father.  GOD could have have chosen a better conclusion for all the hard work.
 Some parents just can;t keep up or stay in tune with
 their kids.  It is tiring and burdensome to speak but
 look at the results of it all.  Not sure what the answer is or how one gets this point accross to the public but I feel sorry for parents who neglect or feel too tired and busy to deal with kids.  Your kids
should come before anything else in your life.  Teach
them right, love them everyday and spend time with them and yet let them be themselves as well.  You don't have to smother them but get involve and this will lead to better communications with your children.
This is something you have to do everyday and not just
for fifteen minutes.  Spend evenings with them and weekends.  Take local trips together.  To get that
well rounded social personality from you kids, demands
your attention.  You want respect, be a freind as well as a parent.  Know when to be a friend and know when to be a parent.  Dads with daughters, spend time
with them.  Do things together.  Fathers and daughters
have special bonds that must be developed.  It's not a give me.  Do this and you build character, self esteem.  Sure they may let you down some but not really.  The overall turnout will outweigh any small
letdowns.  Good luck.

You have been in the public eye for most of your life and I'm always amazed at how you handle yourself with such amazing grace--even during challenging times in your life.   You certainly are an inspiration to anyone going through hard times-- to somehow get up everyday and gather the strength and courage to move forward.  You are not only beautiful on the outside (that's obvious), but on the inside as well.  If the world had more people like you, we would be much better off!!</description></item><item><title>Live From Studio 1A: Brooke Shields Q and A</title><link>http://allday.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/05/09/186104.aspx#186790</link><pubDate>Wed, 09 May 2007 23:04:45 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:186790</guid><dc:creator>Margaret Blickenderfer, Flemington, NJ</dc:creator><description>WOW!

I didn't get to see the entire interview, because I was at the gym, but it really touched me.  I am a 21 year old woman at University of WIsconsin-Eau Claire and I am a health promotion major.  I have found that my only real passion is that I want to help young and older women to become confident and find their identies.  I am frustrated with this country's idea of "health" and the messages that women across the country are getting about what they should strive to be.  My goal for the future is to open some sort of wellness clinic where young women can come and learn to talk to one another, manage stress, find who they are and want to be, and be strong confident adults.  I just don't know how to go about this exactly.  We all have so many ideas and too often there those ideas of change sit.  So, I guess all I really would like to say is that I appreciated the message sent on this mornings show and I hope it put some ideas into other people's mind as well.  </description></item><item><title>Live From Studio 1A: Brooke Shields Q and A</title><link>http://allday.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/05/09/186104.aspx#187402</link><pubDate>Thu, 10 May 2007 15:08:58 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:187402</guid><dc:creator>Kimberly Stearns</dc:creator><description>Ms. Shields you are a wonderful role model and an inspiration to anyone who is going through difficult times.  I have experienced clinical depression through out my adult life.  I have two grown sons and two wonderful grandchildren.  I am totally amazed how well you have handled yourself with such grace even during challenging times in your life.   I pray that others who are going through difficult times will take notice of your actions and focus on how to help themselves and use their experiences in a good way.  May God bless you and your family.  </description></item><item><title>Live From Studio 1A: Brooke Shields Q and A</title><link>http://allday.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/05/09/186104.aspx#187772</link><pubDate>Thu, 10 May 2007 17:36:40 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:187772</guid><dc:creator>john</dc:creator><description>I am the Father of 4 girls and have coached girls in competetive sports for over 9 years.  I love to watch the amazing confidence that they have from 4-9 years old.  After this something happens and somehow we as a society have taken something from that wonderfull "I can conquer the world." My daughters are strong, and I promote that everyday.  I agree that a large part of this is how involved you as a Father are in your daughters lives, and how you personally work to build relationship, which in turn greatly affects their self esteem.  Kudos to Brooke and others working to bring back the "I can do anything," to women.</description></item><item><title>Live From Studio 1A: Brooke Shields Q and A</title><link>http://allday.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/05/09/186104.aspx#188143</link><pubDate>Thu, 10 May 2007 20:18:39 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:188143</guid><dc:creator>Tracy:  Mentor on the Lake, OH</dc:creator><description>I agree with everyone else, an inspiration, a true lady.
