Famous quotes containing the word work:
“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)
“I long to be out in the sun with no work to be done.”
—Irving Berlin (18881989)
“Parenting can be established as a time-share job, but mothers are less good switching off their parent identity and turning to something else. Many women envy the fathers ability to set clear boundaries between home and work, between being an on-duty and an off-duty parent.... Women work very hard to maintain a closeness to their child. Fathers value intimacy with a child, but often do not know how to work to maintain it.”
—Terri Apter (20th century)
