Alison Sweeney Is Teaching Her Kids To Give Back To Society

Alison Sweeney with her son BenAccording to Celebrity Baby Blog actress Alison Sweeney, 33, was asked how she maintains such a balanced childhood for her two children, Ben, 4 ½, and Megan who is 10-months-old coupled with being a celebrity. Sweeney had the following to say in response:

“That’s a tough one. I don’t think anyone’s figured it out 100 percent. You just do the best you can. Being aware of the advantages you have and helping your children understand their good fortune is probably half the battle. Also, setting a good example. Making sure you, as parents, are being good role models is key.”

How does Sweeney try and set a good example and be a good role model for her children? The actress hosted a Winter Wonderland-themed charity event for Feeding America at her home recently, and also has plans to spend Thanksgiving volunteering at a food bank.

“I look forward to volunteering at a food bank on Thanksgiving, and I plan to introduce my children to the idea of giving back as soon as they’re ready. It certainly helps me keep my problems in perspective. I want that same clarity for my children.”

Way to go Alison Sweeney. Its our jobs as parents to raise our children to the best of our ability and it sounds like Alison and her husband are doing a great job.

If you’d like to help out this Thanksgiving holiday there are several ways you can do so. Please feel free to visit California Food Banks and/or The Salvation Army.

    Wasn’t she on Charles in Charge? Shouldn’t she be paying homage to the skills Scott Baio instilled? ;-)

    No, you’re thinking of either Nicole Eggert who played Jamie Powell or Josie Davis who played Sarah Powell.

    Damn that Charles. He’s always one step ahead. Here he knew 20 years in advance this day would be coming where I would easily confuse Eggert with Sweeney! How does he do it? ;-)

    Thanks for clearing me up. :-)
