B

I'm not a super-strict parent, but I think it’s important to have rules for children. It gives them a sense of structure-and that’s what we are all seeking. We just want to know when we’ve done something right or wrong. That’s what I'm trying to teach my own children [Ava, nine, and Deacon, five].

“My kids think I'm a little too chatty,” says Witherspoon.

I grew up in Nashville, Tennessee, and my parents taught me to respect my elders. We’d say things like “yes, ma'am” and “no, sir” to adults. But kids in Los Angeles don't do that. I've forbidden my children to call adults by their first names. I tell them they can call people “Miss Shannon” or “Miss Heather” but that using only the first name is too familiar. Maybe I'm just old-fashioned.

Children should learn their values at home. In sixth grade, I took a manners class once a week. We learned things like “What's the right way to answer the telephone?” My kids set the table every night, and we eat dinner as a family.

I give each of the kids five dollars when we go to the farmers’ market on the weekends. They can buy something, save it, or spend part of it and save the rest. My son is just like me: The minute he gets the money, he spends it all on something delicious. But my daughter will go around the market for a half hour weighing the possibilities until she buys one thing.

I take my kids back to Nashville two or three times a year. They’re crazy about the trees and the food. A river runs through our neighborhood, and they love to walk up and down it-just like I used to do with my brother.

When I was little, my mother and grandmother were such big influences on me. My grandma used to read to me at night, all kinds of books. Now I love to read-I’ll buy ten books at a time!

My mother is my greatest supporter, and I'm hers. We take care of each other that way. And she's very chatty. She could talk to a brick wall for two hours. She used to chat with the grocery checker, and I'd say, “Mom, she doesn't want to know how long it took you to get to school today!” Now my kids do it to me. We'll go to church and I'll be talking to someone, and Deacon will be saying, “Come on, let's go home!”
