Rocker Sheryl Crow is featured on the cover of Prevention magazine's May 2011 issue. In the interview she opens up about being a single mom to boys and taking pride in being a strict mom.
Here's the highlights:
On her parenting style:
“I’m strict. They have to understand that somebody’s in charge and sometimes the answer is no. It’s about being consistent.”
On saying no to sons Wyatt, 4, and Levi, 1:
“I really think that you do them a disservice when they get out into the world and they realize they’re not entitled to have everything. I think we’ve gotten to that place where parenting has been equated with making a child happy.”
On being a single mom to two boys:
“I never thought I’d be raising a boy by myself. Now that I’m three and a half years in and I see Wyatt going into a little testosterone phase, I’m like, ‘Whoa!’ But he has great role models. He sees his two uncles and his granddad often.”
