Famous quotes containing the word children:

    Why can’t the English teach their children how to speak?
    Alan Jay Lerner (1918–1986)

    What is done for the children is doubly beneficial, since their success, obvious to everyone, educates the parents as well.
    Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)

    Even though I had let them choose their own socks since babyhood, I was only beginning to learn to trust their adult judgment.. . . I had a sensation very much like the moment in an airplane when you realize that even if you stop holding the plane up by gripping the arms of your seat until your knuckles show white, the plane will stay up by itself. . . . To detach myself from my children . . . I had to achieve a condition which might be called loving objectivity.
    —Anonymous Parent of Adult Children. Ourselves and Our Children, by Boston Women’s Health Book Collective, ch. 5 (1978)
