Our parents are obviously proud but they're still trying to get used to the fact that we're in a band. I have a feeling my mom would actually like One Direction if I wasn't in it!

Miami Beach - that's where I grew up in a middle-class Jewish family led by my maternal grandfather. Me my great-grandmother - a Holocaust survivor who was my roommate - my grandparents my mom and her brother all shared a four-bedroom house.

My parents are wonderful and I'm really lucky - but my mom has always been almost exclusively a right-brained person.

There is nothing worse that a thirteen-year-old boy. You're embarrassed by your parents and you're trying to find your independance because deep inside you are so dependent on your mom.

President Obama's fight for rural America is personal. He was raised by a single mom and grandparents from Kansas. He hails from a farming state Illinois.

I must admit even though I'm the product of two Jewish parents I think the Irish temper got in there somewhere so I'm going to check Mom's genealogy.

God blessed me with two unbelievable parents and I am just like both of them. I have the smile and charisma of my mother and the big heart of my mom because she wants to save the world and help the world so I am just like her.

My parents are wonderful and I'm really lucky - but my mom has always been almost exclusively a right-brained person. She goes completely on her feelings of things on her intuition and so she instilled that in my brothers and I.

My parents especially my mother were no influence on me whatsoever.

I think my mother is my biggest influence. There are so many things I hate about her but at the same time I'm thankful for her. All I know is that when I'm a parent I want to be just like my mom. I can talk to my mom more than any of my friends could talk to their parents.
