"Immortalized by Rose, the quintessential stage mother in Gypsy, stage mothers (and fathers) have often been characterized as pushy, annoying, meddling, gossiping individuals who will stop at nothing to help their children get ahead in show business. Well, yes, I&#039;ve encountered some of those types of parents, but in my experience they have been in the minority. During my four decades in the industry, most of the parents I&#039;ve come in contact with have behaved professionally and fairly, while continuing to do anything necessary to help their children achieve their career goals."
