Duck Rearing

Famous quotes containing the words duck and/or rearing:

    She shall get a duke, my dear,
    As duck do get a drake;
    And she shall have a young prince,
    For her own fair sake.
    Unknown. Green Grass (l. 9–12)

    Perhaps one reason that many working parents do not agitate for collective reform, such as more governmental or corporate child care, is that the parents fear, deep down, that to share responsibility for child rearing is to abdicate it.
    Faye J. Crosby (20th century)
