“Amanda [Bynes] and I are the same age so I grew up watching her and really looking up to her and for me, to see this path that's happening and to watch it, is kind of really affecting me in ways that I didn't think it would. It's weird to be in a situation where you can't help. I obviously don't know her at all but I want to bring her back and I want to make her happy and healthy for some reason and she's not there and we can't do anything to help so it kind of sucks. All we're doing is hurting it.” ThinkingKnowsWayWantKindReasonHelpingAgeHurtSituationWatchesPathGrewHealthyGrew UpHappeningsAmanda Author:Chrissy Teigen
“Some parents were awful back then and are awful still. The process of raising you didn't turn them into grown-ups. Parents who were clearly imperfect can be helpful to you. As you were trying to grow up despite their fumbling efforts, you had to develop skills and tolerances other kids missed out on. Some of the strongest people I know grew up taking care of inept, invalid, or psychotic parents--but they know the parents weren't normal, healthy, or whole.” PeopleKnowsTryingStillsWholeCareKidsTurnsGrowsProcessParentEffortGrowing UpGrewHealthySkillsNormalGrew UpToleranceDespiteAwfulHelpfulStrongestImperfectPsychotic Author:Frank Pittman

“By 1975 - and continuing to today - all Americans came to believe that they had a "right" to a safe, clean, healthy environment. When I grew up, no one seriously criticized the steel mills and paper mills for the deadly stench they produced - that was the smell of prosperity.

“I grew up caring about people and I would say again, that's what made me who I am. I became a doctor for what I like to call "healthy reasons."
