Who are the role models and heartthrobs?
Who...do the kids in your life...look up to?
Any kids, your own, your grandchildren, your nieces and nephews, your friends kids, even the nieghborhood kids?
Who do they just adore, go on and on about, buy every mag, vid, cd, and glue themselves to the TV to watch? Who do they try to mimic with the way they act, dress, wear their hair and make their kiddy career choices on?
A music artist, actor, athelete...atheletes like pro skate boarders, dirt bikers, and/or nascar drivers?

Hey...you brought up "that name" here, I didn't!!
And gawd, I so hope that she isn't the only influence on kids!
One of my nieces' is at the preteen stage, she falls in love with every new teen aged singing boy that comes along!
She's so cute when she's obsessed!

My six year old love Zack and Cody from the Disney Channel...oh, and let's not forget Hannah Montana aka Miley Cylis...Billy Ray's daughter...of "Don't tell my heart, my achy breaky heart..."
My personal fave is still Rob Lowe...love him in Brother's and Sister's!!!

Cute charactor and cute show!

Re: Who are the role models and heartthrobs?
I remember when Alanis Morrisette's first CD came out...for some reason her music really appealed to very young girls ... when you know what the lyrics to the songs were, it was quite unnerving to see these girls singing them out loud while playing her music on their headsets!

Re: Who are the role models and heartthrobs?
Maroon 5 is really big with some of my Godchildren, I personally like them too...my friends always get ditched because the kids like to ride with me because I have all the good music in my car...
Oh, and BTW, Maroon's frontman isn't too hard to look at either!!!

Re: Who are the role models and heartthrobs?
My Dad is my role model, not my real dad, but the only one I ever knew, so to me he is my dad. He treated us like we were his own, taught me my work ethics. He also showed me courage, I remember in 1966 we had a bad flood, that covered all but the roof of his moms house under water, we went to go get her, he had to dive under water to get in the door, with lightning flashing all around. My Aunt & Uncle had already gotten her, but we didn't know that yet. He is my role model

Re: Who are the role models and heartthrobs?
My mum and dad were mine when i was growing up, hard working, never hurt or insulted anyone else. Always gave everyone the time off day. They would help anyone out if they were in need. I hope i can be my childrens role model as i follow what my parents do.

Re: Who are the role models and heartthrobs?
Currently, my favorite person in the world is Tyra Banks!
I would hope that allot of young ladies are also looking up to her too.
I really like the way she can portray "sexy" as something classy, not skanky!

I know I do, I was reading that her boys are planning a tribute this year, it is hard to believe it has been ten years since she passed. They are doing it on her birthday in July instead of the anniversary of her death to show that they want her to be remembered by her birth, not her death. To have influenced those two young men in such a short time is a tribute to what an amazing woman she was. Always in my memory will be the wonderful things she did for the world, from land mines to aids, she was a one woman crusade...beauty in her case came from the inside out.

I bet it keeps you grounded and focused, eh rdy?
and Juils...Di sure was one in a million, she could have turned into a very self destructive person considering her early circumstances, but she pulled herself so far above all that pettiness and really gave a purpose to living.

Re: Who are the role models and heartthrobs?
This is a really good question and one that I can't quite answer. I never really asked them. They don't "oooo & ahhhh* over anyone in particular... they don't try to emulate anyone in particular, either. They pretty much do their own thing. Although.... my son does watch a lot of weather reports.. his favorite meteorologist is David Finfrock. My daughter loves drawing in the style of Manga. My 6 year old doesn't have a role model yet, either. They just aspire to be what they want to be, not to be just like "so & so."

I see that Juils and I read the same magazines, I think this is a great thing that the boys are doing, I bet Charles is livid about it......
