Famous quotes containing the words partners, health and/or care:

    Let’s face it. With the singular exception of breast-feeding, there is nothing about infant care that a mother is innately better qualified to do than a father. Yet we continue to unconsciously perpetuate the myth that men just don’t have what it takes to be true partners in the process.
    Michael K. Meyerhoff (20th century)

    It is not stressful circumstances, as such, that do harm to children. Rather, it is the quality of their interpersonal relationships and their transactions with the wider social and material environment that lead to behavioral, emotional, and physical health problems. If stress matters, it is in terms of how it influences the relationships that are important to the child.
    Felton Earls (20th century)

    My lord endures
    much care of mind.He remembers too often
    a happier dwelling.Woe be to them
    that for a loved onemust wait in longing.
    —Unknown. The Wife’s Lament (l. 50–53)
