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.

I had no idea that mothering my own child would be so healing to my own sadness from my childhood.

The well-being and welfare of children should always be our focus.

Having children is like having a bowling alley installed in your brain.

Nothing you do for children is ever wasted. They seem not to notice us hovering averting our eyes and they seldom offer thanks but what we do for them is never wasted.

Don't try to make children grow up to be like you or they may do it.

At the end of the day the most overwhelming key to a child's success is the positive involvement of parents.

Most American children suffer too much mother and too little father.

Few things are more satisfying than seeing your children have teenagers of their own.

We are apt to forget that children watch examples better than they listen to preaching.
