Parents

Famous quotes containing the word parents:

    Children aren’t happy with nothing to ignore,
    And that’s what parents were created for.
    Ogden Nash (1902–1971)

    Because we believe ourselves to be better parents than our parents, we expect to produce “better” children than they produced.
    Judith Viorst (20th century)

    I worry about people who get born nowadays, because they get born into such tiny families—sometimes into no family at all. When you’re the only pea in the pod, your parents are likely to get you confused with the Hope Diamond. And that encourages you to talk too much.
    Russell Baker (b. 1925)
