I only have one child. But I am learning that there is a lot to being a parent that you did not expect.

I've got a lot to do, and I hope that by the end of it all, people will say that Dee Snider was an entertainer, and he did his job well.

I wanted to be a rich, famous rock-and-roll star in that order.

Being a parent is not a reasonable thing. It is a very hard thing. I am a parent and I know.

My son is 7 years old. I am 54. It has taken me a great many years to reach that age. I am more respected in the community, I am stronger, I am more intelligent and I think I am better than he is. I don't want to be a pal, I want to be a father.

We always blame other people when things go wrong. For example, family to friends, you think they'll stay by your side, and you realise they never do. But that's life.

Everyone should have cancer one time - then you'd know that other things aren't important. The guy that gives you the finger at the stoplight don't mean nothing anymore. You come home and something's cold, or you didn't get something in the mail. Big deal. You want to get up every day and see your family and your friends.

I am a very private person, so on my birthday too I will spend a cozy time with my family and a few close friends!
