In A Nutshell
Here are some tidbits of parenting wisdom and humor:
- Children don’t have to be concerned about whether they are on
earth or in paradise. They just know that they know. (Swami Chidvislananda).
- A successful parent is one who raises a child who grows up and is
able to pay for her or his own psychoanalysis. (Nora Ephron)
- On daycare: let your child see that you’re friendly with the
caregiver. If you can spend time talking and smiling with each other,
then your child sees that you like and trust each other. (Fred Rogers)
- More than in any other human relationship, overwhelmingly more, motherhood
means being instantly interruptible, responsive, responsible. (Tillie
Olsen)
- Children seldom misquote you. In fact, they usually repeat word for
word what you shouldn’t have said! (email from a friend)
- Mealtime hint: Have some fun meals like: leftover night, make your
own sandwich, taco or pizza night, breakfast foods for supper. (Fred
Rogers)
- Grandchildren are God’s reward for not killing your children.
