"Kids are cute, babies are cute, puppies are cute. The little things are cute. See, nature did this on purpose so that we would want to take care of our young. Made them cute. Tricked us.

Eleanor Roosevelt
"One thing they never tell you about child raising is that for the rest of your life, at the drop of a hat, you are expected to know your child's name and how old he or she is."
Erna Bombeck
"Ask your child what he wants for dinner only if he's buying."
Fran Lebowitz
"Some people seem as if they can never have been children, and others seem as if they could never be anything else."
George Dennison Prentice
