I Got Through My Teen Years By

I Don't Think In My Family Anyone Looked After Anyone. It Didn't Matter How Old They Were.

I Learnt The Theory Of Movement, Which I Still Teach Sometimes. I Was Very, Very Ambitious To Learn A Skill.

If There Was A Distraction I'd Get Up And Jump Out The Window. I Was Quite Out Of Hand. In Schools Like That I Don't Think They Expect That Girls Are Going To Behave In Such An Outrageous Fashion.

The Most Surprising Thing For My Mother And Father Was When I Was Actually Earning More Money Than Them By The Time I Was About 18. They Thought I Was Going To Be The Ne'er Do Well, Who They'd Have To Keep Worrying About.

My Mother Felt It Was Time That I Had Some Parental Control, So I Went Off To America And Went To New York.
