Kelly on Pushing Ideas on the Kids

"I don't want to be that mom who is wanting to push ideas or stuff on their children, so I love that we can talk and share experiences and laugh, and if I have some tips, I certainly try to give those. But at the same time, I don't want any of the kids to feel like, 'Mom's a know-it-all, and we have to do it her way' because everybody's different."

-Kelly Bates

What did you think of last night's Bringing Up Bates season premiere episode? In the extended scene below, Kelly discusses must-have items for the hospital bag. And what a great quote the one above is from the mom of 19. She has a very healthy perspective on raising children and relating to adult children.
