Sharon Osbourne has said that she had to learn from her own mistakes growing up because she "never got any good advice" from her own family.
The 62-year-old talk show host, who has three children, Aimee, 31, Kelly, 30, and Jack, 29, with Black Sabbath rocker, Ozzy Osbourne, admits she "wasn't close" to any of her family.
She told People, ''I learned from my own mistakes. I wasn't close with my family so I learned from my own mistakes. I kind of think that if you don't get it right by the time you're 40 or 50, you are never going to get it right. I think it's time: We all need time to grow as people and time to know, 'Oh, maybe I should have an opinion about this or maybe I shouldn't.' ''
Osbourne, who is known for being outspoken, said that she never sets out to hurt people, adding: ''A lot of people really don't like others being opinionated, they would rather you sit on the fence instead of having a strong opinion on something. I get it but that doesn't mean I still don't put my foot in my mouth - I do!
''I've always been very opinionated. I don't want to hurt people, I don't get a kick out of embarrassing people or being disrespectful, but if you ask me I'll answer. I don't mean to do it in a mean way to anyone.''
