 Denise Jonas - 2008 iMOM Inspiration Award Winner
Denise Jonas is the mother of the Jonas Brothers – Kevin, Joe and Nick, and son number four – known as the bonus Jonas – Frankie. The Jonas Brothers have become wildly popular with tweens and young teens through their music. And while they really are talented, it is their character that attracted iMOM. Good character doesn't just happen. It is consistently taught and modeled usually by a devoted mom. The Jonas Brothers publicly point to Denise as the inspiration for why they do what they do, "We're just normal guys," says Nick, " we're not perfect… we're just living every day as it comes and trying our best to make our mom proud." One of the ways they're doing that is through their choice to wear purity rings, "…they're a promise to ourselves and God that we'll stay pure till marriage," says Joe. Denise is also responsible for keeping the boys from letting fame go to their heads, "At the end of the day, like when you get off stage of a really big show, mom's going make you clean your bunk, like it always comes back to that," says Nick. Denise Jonas is an inspiration to mothers to make relationships with their children a priority. To put aside the distractions of this busy world and take time to invest in your children's character. |
