Famous quotes containing the word children:

    I call the years when our children are between six and twelve the “golden years,” not because everything’s perfect . . . but because the kids are capable and independent. . . . They’re becoming fascinating human beings who continually astound us and make us laugh. And they build our self-esteem. They still adore us for the most part, not yet having reached that age of thinking everything we do is dumb, old-fashioned and irrelevant.
    Vicki Lansky (20th century)
