Famous quotes containing the word children:
“The middle years are ones in which children increasingly face conflicts on their own,... One of the truths to be faced by parents during this period is that they cannot do the work of living and relating for their children. They can be sounding boards and they can probe with the children the consequences of alternative actions.”
—Dorothy H. Cohen (20th century)
“Our most important task as parents is raising children who will be decent, responsible, and caring people devoted to making this world a more compassionate place”
—Neil Kurshan (20th century)
“A year at the breast is quite enough; children who are suckled longer are said to grow stupid, and I am all for popular sayings.”
—Honoré De Balzac (1799–1850)
