STEFANI TURNS TO STRICT PARENTS FOR ADVICE

GWEN STEFANI looks to her mum and dad for parental inspiration because they did such a good job raising her.
The No Doubt rocker admits she constantly worries about her skills as a mother to sons Kingston and Zuma, and regularly turns to her own parents for advice - even though they were so strict when she was a child.
She tells America's Glamour magazine, "I was thinking today when I was driving, 'How am I going to make sure that Kingston never does anything bad and doesn't get arrested?' I was thinking, 'How did I stay out of trouble?' And I know it's just because my parents are so strict. I mean, I'm still scared of them!
"I grew up in a normal family. The other evening, at the end of the night, I was there with Kingston putting him to bed, reading all his books, getting his diaper on and putting him in his crib. Then I got Zuma, nursed him, put him to sleep. Then I went to a Hollywood party! It is extremely different from how my parents raised me.
"I've always worked really hard, and the hardest thing I've ever done is have kids! Everything from getting up in the morning, to trying to be consistent, to trying to have the right feelings. But, of course, the rewards are great."
