What's happened to the family?
It seems clearly evident that since Nick's relationship with 'Willa' has become closer, he has become more and more distant from his family. It seems particularly sad that he had a public falling out with his mother, when they used to be so, so close.
"As you know, it has all worked out for the
best. My mom has been very influential in my success. And so has my dad. I
love my whole family--but I not only love, I like my parents and I'm very
grateful to them, especially my mom. Without them, I might not have
achieved my dream so young. Maybe I would have achieved it when I was much
older. Nick Carter, rising thirty-year-old star? I don't think so.
I could go out to a mall, and purchase something to show my
gratitude to my parents. But what amount do you spend to say thank you for
faith, hope, and love--the things my mom gave me? No fancy car or piece of
jewelry compares. So Mom, what I want you to know is that your love
nourished me, your faith in me helped me focus--and my hope and yours
paved my way. That's what I want you to know, from my heart to your heart.
I am very grateful to be in this position. I want to thank all my
fans.
Thank You.
Love,
Nick"

"I trust my mom 100%. She knows me very
well and is capable of guessing my
thoughts. I love when she's
there."
"I get homesick a lot. That can make me
so emotional that I sometimes
feel like crying; but never in front of
anyone. No way !"
