Believe me my children have more stamina than a power station.
It's a great mistake I think to put children off with falsehoods and nonsense when their growing powers of observation and discrimination excite in them a desire to know about things.
I don't think children's inner feelings have changed. They still want a mother and father in the very same house they want places to play.
I feel very blessed to have two wonderful healthy children who keep me completely grounded sane and throw up on my shoes just before I go to an awards show just so I know to keep it real.
Parents were invented to make children happy by giving them something to ignore.
Fathers and mothers have lost the idea that the highest aspiration they might have for their children is for them to be wise... specialized competence and success are all that they can imagine.
You have to support your children to have a healthy relationship.
No fathers or mothers think their own children ugly.
You can learn many things from children. How much patience you have for instance.
I want to have children but my friends scare me. One of my friends told me she was in labor for 36 hours. I don't even want to do anything that feels good for 36 hours.
