Parenting Quotes

My husband’s a pediatrician, so he and I talk about parenting all the time. You can’t raise children who have more shame resilience than you do Picture Quote #1

Most people who have grown up introverted in this very extroverted culture of ours have had painful experiences of feeling like they are out of step with what’s expected of them. Parenting can pose unique challenges for introverted parents, who fear that their own painful experiences will be repeated in their children’s lives Picture Quote #1

People who choose not to have kids do so because they respect the job of parenting so much that they know not to take it on if they know it’s not something that they’re up for, and I don’t know what to be a bigger tribute to parenting than that Picture Quote #1

I’m doing a lot of parenting work and acting as a spokesperson. I have a clothing line and a line of toys Picture Quote #1

There’s no handbook for parenting. So you walk a very fine line as a parent because you are civilizing these raw things. They will tip the coffee over and finger-paint on the table. At some point, you have to say, ‘We’re gonna have to clean that up because you don’t paint with coffee on a table.’ Picture Quote #1

Healthy parenting is especially challenging when our own childhoods weren’t healthy. It requires energy, attention, and constant restraint. Realize that you need healing. Take time out to nurture yourself Picture Quote #1

The challenging part of parenting for me is to make sure that an individual person is an individual and not some sort of cookie-cutter version of me. At the same time, I want to make sure that I impart my sense of the world as an adult Picture Quote #1

I think a generation ago, dads went to work, they came home, and they had their dinner, had a drink, and then went to bed. I don’t know what it was like in your house, but that is how it was in mine. I think it is cool to have the dads in the trenches and doing the real parenting work Picture Quote #1

When it comes right down to it, developing a critical sensibility about parenting isn’t really about disapproval; it’s about honing your own sensibilities, figuring out how you want to parent Picture Quote #1

To be a different kind of parent, you don’t just need a different parenting philosophy. You need a very different view of what a child actually is Picture Quote #1

The thing about parenting rules is there aren’t any. That’s what makes it so difficult Picture Quote #1

It’s difficult to keep that perspective, I think, as a parent: to know your boundaries as to what’s good parenting or just projecting your own expectations on your kids. That’s the hardest Picture Quote #1

Edith Vonnegut behaved like a guest in her children’s lives. To her way of thinking, parenting came under the general heading of household tasks, which, as a wealthy woman, she could pay others to do Picture Quote #1

As a rule, I try to steer clear of opinions pertaining to your parenting. I assume you’re doing the best you can, and God bless Picture Quote #1

No one said parenting was easy,but NO good parent has any right to give up.It is one labyrinth you can never quit because it seems too hard Picture Quote #1

A parenting program should provide time for parents to clarify their own ideas about what it means to be an effective and successful parent Picture Quote #1

I take parenting incredibly seriously. I want to be there for my kids and help them navigate the world, and develop skills, emotional intelligence, to enjoy life, and I’m lucky to be able to do that and have two healthy, normal boys Picture Quote #1

Smaller families mean we have more time and money to lavish on each child. Parents are more anxious because small families give them less experience of parenting and put their genetic eggs in fewer baskets Picture Quote #1

To me, Slow parenting is about bringing balance into the home. Children need to strive and struggle and stretch themselves, but that does not mean childhood should be a race. Slow parents give their children plenty of time and space to explore the world on their own terms Picture Quote #1

Ironically, pretending that parenting is easy diminishes the value of family. As truth seekers and truth speakers, we need to be honest about the cost of parenting Picture Quote #1

Parents don’t come full bloom at the birth of the first baby. In fact parenting is about growing. It’s about our own growing as much as it is about our children’s growing and that kind of growing happens little by little Picture Quote #1

The system is only as good as the person programming it. If you don’t have the follow-through, your system is useless. And by the way, it’s that way in parenting; it’s that way in marriages Picture Quote #1

Tell me how a person judges his or her self-esteem, and I will tell you how that person operates at work, in love, in sex, in parenting, in every important aspect of existence - and how high he or she is likely to rise. The reputation you have with yourself - your self-esteem - is the single most important factor for a fulfilling life Picture Quote #1

People love my honesty when it comes to parenting. I really struggled that I wasn’t fitting in with the other moms at my kids’ school and then one day I said screw it and became even more honest in my stand up and career. I still don’t get invited to their parties but I have pretty fun life! Picture Quote #1

Screaming at children over their grades, especially to the point of the child’s tears, is child abuse, pure and simple. It’s not funny and it’s not good parenting. It is a crushing, scarring, disastrous experience for the child. It isn’t the least bit funny Picture Quote #1

I don’t know what’s more exhausting about parenting: the getting up early, or acting like you know what you’re doing Picture Quote #1

The secret to success, to parenting, to life, is to not count up the cost. Don’t focus on all the steps it will take. Don’t stare into the abyss at the giant leap it will take. That view will keep you from taking the next small step Picture Quote #1

Giving kids whatever they ask for is disastrous parenting. There’s no sense of something earned. I’m sorry, but when you’re 12, you don’t need a new cell phone every few months just because a new one comes out Picture Quote #1

Indeed - judicious, consistent parenting is a dream of mine. No judgements, learning space and listening carefully are my goals Picture Quote #1

TV commercials make parenting look like there are going to be good days and bad days - like, it’ll be this gentle wave, like you’ll have a blissed-out, really wonderful day or two, and then, you know, then you’ll have an issue. And what parenting is, is kind of earthquake Picture Quote #1
