Singer Whitney Houston is featured in the latest issue of Instyle magazine. In the issue, the career mom speaks about her return to the music industry, among other interesting topics.  In addition, the Grammy award-winning singer talks about the differences and similarities between her and her daughter Bobbi Kristina,16.

“It’s funny because her body is mine, her skin color is mine, but she says exactly what’s on her mind, so she’s like her father in that manner. These kids, man, they come out and just let you know right off. But I think it’s a very important thing to allow our children to express themselves so it won’t be expressed in other areas, like on the street,” Whitney said.

“If she’s angry, I allow her to say, ‘Damn! I’m so frustrated today!’ We have our moments when we clash, but we have a good relationship. I want her to count on me to try to understand what she’s going through. No damnation, no condemnation, nothing that’s going to make her feel like she can’t come to me.”
