Famous quotes containing the word children:

    I can remember no time when I did not understand that my mother must write books because people would have and read them; but I cannot remember one hour in which her children needed her and did not find her.
    Elizabeth Stuart Phelps (1844–1911)

    The risk for a woman who considers her helpless children her “job” is that the children’s growth toward self-sufficiency may be experienced as a refutation of the mother’s indispensability, and she may unconsciously sabotage their growth as a result.
    Letty Cottin Pogrebin (20th century)

    It is healthier, in any case, to write for the adults one’s children will become than for the children one’s “mature” critics often are.
    Alice Walker (b. 1944)
