PRESIDENT OBAMA: “I’VE GOT SOME HAPPY, NORMAL KIDS”

President Obama at daughter Sasha's soccer game on May 16th.

When asked recently in an interview with Newsweek magazine about whether or not his daughters have adjusted to their new found fame, President Barack Obama was quoted as saying: 

 ”You know, the nice thing is that, partly because of temperament, partly because of Michelle’s unbelievable parenting skills, I’ve just got some happy, normal kids,” President Obama says about daughters Sasha and Malia. “And all that stuff that’s going on around them, they just kind of miss. We have not seen any effects, any fishbowl effects, yet on them.”

“Now, I worry about them when they’re teenagers where, you know, you’re already embarrassed about your parents and even more embarrassed on TV all the time,” he tells Newsweek. “And dating I think will be an issue because I have men with guns surrounding them at all times [laughter], which I’m perfectly happy with, but they may feel differently about it.”

    It’s good that they allow the girls to participate in regular activities. I feel sorry for kids that are so sheltered that they feel as if they are missing out on life. Regarding boys, they should be more afraid of getting pass Michelle than the Secret Service. Do you think she is going to let some fool take her daughter (unsupervised) on a date to SE or NE Washington? Please!!!
