[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would much rather my kids turn out like Chelsea than like the Bush girls. I think the Clintons did a great job with her. She seems smart, articulate, can stay out of the limelight, etc. [/quote] Chelsea is an only and her parents are self-made. The Bush twins are not. I don't know why they are they way they are because Laura seems like she would have raised great kids.[/quote] Actually one of the Bush twins is or was a charter school teacher in DC. I think they turned out Ok. [/quote] I think the Bush twins turned out perfectly fine. One is a teacher and the other is with NBC and comes across quite likeable. Everyone just wants to harp on their behavior in the Bush White House -- they weren't raised in the WH like Chelsea. I believe they were already in high school or college by the time their dad won, so they went from having normal teenage freedom to having Secret Service dictating where they could and couldn't go -- and they acted out. Should they have held it together better -- yes. Is it necessary that someone who acts out at age 17 won't end up being a perfectly responsible 30-something professional -- no.[/quote] They are just so blah and unimpressive. Chelsea seems smart and accomplished. [/quote] They're perfectly fine (and no I'm not a republican or a Bush supporter). The difference between them and Chelsea -- they are not fame seekers. I realize Chelsea says she doesn't want to be in the public eye -- but really she wouldn't mind it; she pretty much said it in her Vanity Fair article that she wants a more public role, would consider running for office, has an agent etc. I'm not shocked -- she may be smart and on the shy side, but she's been raised by fame whores and some of that sunk in. In contrast look at George and Laura now -- you don't hear about them much at all and that's of their own choosing. They could hold a 2 day event with a foundation to coincide with the UN also, they just don't do those things; thus their daughters seem to have taken the message that it's ok for life to be more "private" (NBC notwithstanding though it's not like Jenna is revealing her own life on the Today Show any more than her colleagues do).[/quote] Working for a TV channel does not say "not fame seeking" to me.[/quote]
