(on motherhood)Pamela: It's almost pathology to strive to be a perfect parent, but we just have to be good enough. You have to support your children, you have to let them know that they're loved, protect them in important ways. You have to give them room to grow and help them make their own decisions. Thank God I came to that stuff just in time.
(on why she made "Shrink Rap")Pamela: I am a little bit of a campaigner, and this struck me as a bit of an opportunity to do a little bit of teaching. People have talked, and I have helped them to understand certain things, with an eye on the fact that people out there will learn.
