TERESA: 'I think men are supposed to be boys always' Thu Oct 07 2004 22:22:44 ET Kerry and Teresa Heinz Kerry appeared on "Dr. Phil" yesterday. Some highlights, from HOTLINE: THK: "I think men are supposed to be boys always. They just go through different stages and if wives understand that they can love them." THK, asked if she ever wanted daughters: "Yes. ... I had some miscarriages." Kerry, on bringing the kids together after he and THK married: "I played hockey and my daughter played hockey. And so when we got married and were spending Christmases together, we started this tradition of having this broom hockey game on Christmas afternoon. We all got shirts that had the tomatoes versus the pickles on it, which sort blended her thing with our thing. And now it's become an annual thing." Kerry, on his divorce: "I think the absolute key is to make the initial decision that no matter what happens you've got these kids together and they are what it's all about. And it's hard sometimes but you have got to put their lives ahead of your lives. ... She did an incredible job as a mother. ... And she made up for a lot of my deficits and I have to acknowledge that." More Kerry: "Anything negative we tried to keep away from them. I was supportive of her mothering and she was supportive of my fathering." Kerry, on telling the girls about the divorce: "You have to sit down and look them in the eye." More Kerry: "It was an ongoing effort to try to make sure that they knew their lives weren't going to change, that both of us would to be there for them, and this wasn't anything to do with them. And really try to protect them from it." Kerry, asked if ever spanked the girls: "Only once did I ever spank one. ... I don't remember what it was [about] but I hated it and I said I will never do that again in my life." Kerry: "I think children of people in public life do get a burden. And they have their parents lives shoved at them in a way that other people don't." More Kerry: "I bent over backwards never to force what I was doing on to the kids." THK, about possibly being first lady: "When my late husband was alive a lot of people used to say he would run for president. And when he first thought about running for Congress, I asked him not to. So he didn't for about three or four years. And I was very scared about it for a variety for reasons. I have lived in Washington since he was elected in '71 and I have a pretty good idea of what happens in that city and what power can do to people. ... So I'm pretty philosophical about it." More THK: "I cannot change who I am. Win or lose -- I cannot change who am. ... I know there are people that don't like me because I'm married to my husband. And that's just part of the game. If you want to be loved by everyone, don't go into politics." THK: "I was a witch with my children, truly, about television. I used to say you can watch a half hour of television a day." END |
