Family Allowances

Famous quotes containing the words family and/or allowances:

    We do not raise our children alone.... Our children are also raised by every peer, institution, and family with which they come in contact. Yet parents today expect to be blamed for whatever results occur with their children, and they expect to do their parenting alone.
    Richard Louv (20th century)

    Great allowances ought to be made for the petulance of persons laboring under ill-health.
    Samuel Richardson (1689–1761)
