Parents Quotes

It can be really frightening for young people to see their parents fighting. Remember, you’re not alone and there are people out there who can support you Picture Quote #1

When we outlaw child pornography, the prices paid for child performers rise, increasing the incentives for parents to use children against their will Picture Quote #1

I am sorry we promoted sexual orientation change efforts and reparative theories about sexual orientation that stigmatized parents Picture Quote #1

Kids today are much more independant than their parents were. We’re really into getting jobs and we mature sexually much earlier than a generation ago. Or, at least, we are involved in sex earlier Picture Quote #1

I still get angry when older people assume that everyone in my generation, screws around. They’re probably the same ones who think all kids use dope. It’s true that we are more open than our parents but that just means we accept sex and talk about it. It doesn’t mean we are all jumping into bed together Picture Quote #1

Children who willingly participate in sexual acts have the right to make that decision as well, even if it’s distasteful to us personally. Some children will make poor choices just as some adults do in smoking and drinking to excess. When we outlaw child pornography, the prices paid for child performers rise, increasing the incentives for parents to use children against their will Picture Quote #1

The question we must ask ourselves as a culture is whether we want to embrace the change that must come, or resist it. Are we so attached to the dietary fallacies with which we were raised, so afraid to counter the arbitrary laws of eating taught to us in childhood by our misinformed parents, that we cannot alter the course they set us on, even if it leads to our own ruin? Does the prospect of standing apart or encounttering ridicule scare us even from saving ourselves? Picture Quote #1

A happy childhood is one of the best gifts that parents have in their power to bestow Picture Quote #1

When I say that all men have the mind which cannot bear to see the suffering of others, my meaning is illustrated this way: when two men suddenly see a child about to fall into a well, they all have a feeling of alarm and distress, not to gain friendship with the child’s parents, nor to seek the praise of their neighbors and friends. From such a case, we see that a man without the feeling of commiseration is not a man. The feeling of commiseration is the beginning of humanity Picture Quote #1

My parents wanted me to be a lawyer. But I don’t think I would have been very happy. I’d be in front of the jury singing Picture Quote #1

All parenting turns on a crucial question: to what extent parents should accept their children for who they are, and to what extent they should help them become their best selves Picture Quote #1

I was, in reality, bred by my parents as my father’s concubine... What we take for granted as the stability of family life may well depend on the sexual slavery of our children. What’s more, this is a cynical arrangement our institutions have colluded to conceal Picture Quote #1

The footsteps a child follows are most likely to be the ones his parents thought they covered up Picture Quote #1

What a mercy was it to us to have parents that prayed for us before they had us, as well as in our infancy when we could not pray for ourselves! Picture Quote #1

People who, as children, were intellectually far beyond their parents and therefore admired by them, but who also therefore had to solve their own problems alone. These people, who give us a feeling of their intellectual strength and will power, also seem to demand that we, too, ought to fight off any feeling of weakness with intellectual means. In their presence one feels one cannot be recognized as a person with problems just as they and their problems were unrecognized by their parents, for whom he always had to be strong Picture Quote #1

My parents didn’t have the opportunities that my wife and I have now, from a quality of life standpoint Picture Quote #1

My parents encouraged us to commit to things, so if we wanted to learn an instrument, it was all the grades and all the theory Picture Quote #1

Most of these students are so conditioned to success that they become afraid to take risks. They have been taught from a young age by zealous parents, schools, and institutional authorities what constitutes failure and success. They are socialized to obey. They obsess over grades and seek to please professors, even if what professors teach is fatuous. The point is to get ahead, and getting ahead means deference to authority. Challenging authority is never a career advancer Picture Quote #1

I have always believed that the way my parents disciplined me has a great deal to do with the success I have enjoyed as a man Picture Quote #1

To the best of my recollection, I became a philosopher because my parents wanted me to become a lawyer. It seems to me, in retrospect, that there was much to be said for their suggestion. On the other hand, many philosophers are quite good company; the arguments they use are generally better than the ones that lawyers use; and we do get to go to as many faculty meetings as we like at no extra charge Picture Quote #1

Hope is a merciless tormentor. It’s the sound of trickling water to parched lips. The prospect of love to the unlovable. A miracle cure to the parents of a dying child. It holds up victory over the inevitable and beckons us to crawl further over slicing shards, all the while pulling back, remaining just out of reach. It makes agony out of mere pain by pretending a different outcome could have been. It laughs at mankind’s embrace of it after millennia of disappointment Picture Quote #1

In view of this and other things, I demand forgiveness for being so obviously impressed with my own parents Picture Quote #1

My devotion to my job started from a personal defeat: my first girlfriend’s parents rejected me because I wasn’t rich. I decided I would show them what a big mistake they had made Picture Quote #1

Im pleased to say that in telling them, and especially my parents, they told me that they love me and they support me. And for young people out there, know that thats usually what the answer is Picture Quote #1

I was intent on doing something productive and on being everything my parents taught me to be. Their values were clear: do good work; don’t ever get too big for your breeches; always be an authentic person; don’t worry too much about being famous and rich because that doesn’t amount to too much Picture Quote #1

In the end, we all have to decide what we’re willing to give up for payback. We all have parents or grandparents or children who will need us. Agonizing decisions sometimes. You have to weigh the memories and debt against what’s being taken from you Picture Quote #1

You rebel against your parents until you become them. One day you look in the mirror and you see your father’s face Picture Quote #1

When learning is recognized in the fabric of life and encouraged, when families make their decisions based on what leads to more interesting and educational ends, children learn without effort, often without even knowing it, and parents learn along with them Picture Quote #1

Education is a life; that life is sustained on ideas; ideas are of spiritual origin, and that we get them chiefly as we convey them to one another. The duty of parents is to sustain a child’s inner life with ideas as they sustain his body with food Picture Quote #1

If parents wish to preserve childhood for their own children, they must conceive of parenting as an act of rebellion against culture Picture Quote #1
