Famous quotes containing the words health and/or care:
“I would hope that parents and grown children could be friends. When a friend confides in you that shes going to do something that you think is most inappropriate, foolhardy or even dangerous, wouldnt you as a friend say soin a calm, supportive way? Yet I have to be so careful what I say to my children. I have to walk on eggs to be sure Im not hurting their feelings or interfering with their lives.”
—Anonymous Parent of Adult Children. Ourselves and Our Children, by Boston Womens Health Book Collective, ch. 5 (1978)
“They [creative children] ask more questions than most children. Theyre usually spontaneous and enthusiastic. Their ideas are unique and occasionally strike other kids as weird. Theyre independent. Not that they dont care at all what other kids think, but theyre able to do their thing despite the fact that their peers may think its strange. And they have lots and lots of ideas.”
—Silvia Rimm (20th century)
