Famous quotes containing the word children:
“Answering questions can be a responsibility. Children think that their parents have all the answers. In the words of one child, children are “whyers” and parents “becausers.””
—Ruth Formanek (20th century)
“Our children are counting on us to provide two things: consistency and structure. Children need parents who say what they mean, mean what they say, and do what they say they are going to do.”
—Barbara Coloroso (20th century)
“When parents fail to set appropriate limits, children may feel more vulnerable at night: the aggressive urges that have not been “tamed” by day may be terrifying to a small child alone in the dark.”
—Cathy Rindner Tempelsman (20th century)
