Kelly Ripa: "The Kids Know They're Smarter Than We Are At This Point"

Kelly Ripa graces Good Housekeeping’s March cover and opens up about family life with husband Mark Consuelos and their three kids Michael, 14, Lola, 10, and Joaquin, 9. The 41-year-old talk show queen also shares her thoughts on having another baby.

On life with Mark, disciplining the kids: "[Mark is] kind of awesome. I think he makes me better. He makes everything in our lives better." She adds that they do fight sometimes. "We argue about children, discipline, homework, good-cop/bad-cop. He says he's the bad cop and I'm the good cop, but really they associate him with fun and after-school activities. They associate me with inoculations, X-rays, and stitches. He's more apt to dole out discipline, but my punishments are real. I'll take away my son's iPod if he's fresh. When we're traveling, Mark will say, "If you don't stop, I'm going to have the pilot turn this plane around." I'll whisper to him, "They know you can't do that. The airline isn't going to turn this plane around because you're punishing the kids. You need to come up with something real."

Kelly Ripa On Motherhood & Guilt: "I'm Going To Fail Everybody A Little Bit Every Day"

TV host and actress Kelly Ripa is no stranger to "mom guilt," trying to balance her busy work schedule with her responsibilities at home with her three children - Michael, 14, Lola, 10, and Joaquin, 8. But for Kelly, dealing with that guilt has become a lot easier now that she's lowered her expectations.

"Guilt for me is something that I still struggle with. I always feel guilty," says Ripa. "I think every working mother does have that guilt about failing in some way. But the way I've learned to sort of balance it is just by knowing that I'm going to fail everybody a little bit every day.

Angelina Jolie & Brad Pitt have several tattoos. Angie's arm shows the latitude & longitude of the birthplaces of their 6 kids.

No longer a taboo act reserved for sailors, tattoos prove that skin is always in. Celebrities have led the way in increasing the popularity of permanent body art.

Susan Sarandon recently talked about getting tattoos with her three kids. A heavily inked David Beckham revealed how his sons are eager to join in the family tradition: "One of them said to me recently, 'How old do I have to be before I get my first tattoo?' I was like, 'A lot older than you are now.'" While mother-of-two Nicole Richie - who is inked alongside fiancé Joel Madden - said she'd be "heartbroken" if their kids chose to get tattooed like mom and dad.

Let's take a look at 20 celeb parents who have been inked.

Whose tats do you like the best? Have you been inked?

Kelly Ripa: I Tell My Son, "As Far As Parents Go, We're The Bomb!"

Regis & Kelly host Kelly Ripa and husband Mark Consuelos recently celebrated their 14th wedding anniversary, in one of the longest standing relationships in Hollywood. The couple have three children together, and they now face the challenge that all parents eventually face, their oldest son Michael has entered the teenage years. Ripa opened up to People about her teenage son, saying,

I read all of these books on teenagers, and they tell you all these things that are going to happen, and it all happened. They become surly. They lock themselves in their room. Everything [the parents] do is embarrassing. I keep telling him, 'As far as parents go, we're the bomb! The coolest parents ever!'"

Though Michael just recently turned 13, Consuelos revealed that his teenage behaviour began earlier, "I feel like he's been a teenager for the past year already."

The couple, who met on the set of the soap All My Children 15-years-ago, are also parents to 9-year-old Lola, and 7-year-old Joaquin.

Kelly Ripa & Mark Consuelos' Happy Group

Kelly Ripa & Mark Consuelos' Happy Group

Such a happy group! Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos were spotted strolling in their SoHo neighborhood with their three kids - Michael, 13 next month, Lola, 9 next month, and Joaquin, 7 - in New York City on Sunday (May 23). The happy family-of-five hugged, smiled and waved at the paparazzi.

Kelly opened up about keeping the flame alive in their 13-year marriage.

Initially, we would never leave the kids alone with a babysitter. But then Mark would say, 'We are going out to dinner,' and I would say, 'Without the kids?' And he would say, 'Yes. Because that's what grown-ups do.' It was something he forced me to do, and now I think to myself, The kids will be thrilled. They know the babysitter is going to let them watch TV and eat cookies. So that's the balance Mark introduced to me. I know there are people who are good at dealing with this stuff, but I think the majority of women feel tremendous guilt."
