Presidential parenting: Does parenting style tell us about a candidate?
By Kelly Wallace, CNN
Ted Cruz, standing beside his adorable Taylor Swift-loving daughters, tells a story about how his 5-year-old gives great hugs.
Donald Trump looks on as his eldest daughter, Ivanka, explains that her father always said there wasn’t anything she couldn’t do.
And, John Kasich becomes a target of teasing by his teenage daughters for his not-exactly strong dancing and joke-telling abilities.
Those were just a few moments from the recent town halls with the Republican presidential candidates and their families on CNN. Each candidate had an opportunity to show a more human and — in some cases — maybe a more likeable side than what they usually show on the debate stage.
After watching them, one of my colleagues wondered if these intimate snapshots of a candidate’s parenting style and relationship with family tell us anything about what kind of president they might be.
I reached out to a number of parenting experts, who were quick to note two things: First, you can’t really make a judgment about someone’s parenting based on carefully choreographed moments such as a televised family town hall. Second, licensed mental health professionals are very reluctant to make any judgments about anyone based strictly on observation.
Plus, being a good parent alone does not guarantee effective leadership skills. “There have been great leaders who were not great parents as well as great parents who were less-than-stellar leaders,” said Dr. Gail Saltz, associate professor of psychiatry at The New York Presbyterian Hospital Weill-Cornell School of Medicine.

The COO of Facebook Sheryl Sandberg is going to be the star of a new “Female Force” comic book, “Female Force: Sheryl Sandberg.”
The 22-page book will be a visual biography of her life, without any superhero powers, according to CNET.
It was written by Michael Frizell for Bluewater Productions.
“Bluewater’s formula is to attempt to tell the story of the subject from birth to the present — that’s a lot of ground to cover in 22 pages — so, I hit the highlights,” Frizell tells CNET. “Her family, her education, the formation of her belief system, and her personal and professional successes make up her story.”
The Sandberg comic, which comes out in June, won’t include more from her book “Lean In,” Frizell says: I would love to have explored ‘Lean In’ a bit more than I could roughly 80-90 panels. ‘Lean In’ is compelling and full of interesting and potentially controversial ideas. Had I another eight pages, I would have explored the book more, specifically focusing on the formation of those ideas and how she practices them in her life.
Previous books in the “Female Force” series include Martha Stewart, Hillary Clinton, Michelle Obama and Ellen DeGeneres.
