“Young mothers assemble
At swing and sandpit
Setting free their children.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
“Remember...that each child is a separate person, yours forever, but never fully yours. She can never be all you wished or wanted, or all you know she could be. But she will be a better human being if you can let her be herself.”
