Being a parent is about your survival. Surviving the terrible two's is the most important thing.

I'm not a parent, but it seems to me the nature of parenting is contingent, full of unexpected challenges - which is one of the wonderful and amazing things about it.

Parenting is not for everybody. It changes your life. Especially when they're little.

Being a parent is not a reasonable thing. It is a very hard thing. I am a parent and I know.

Being a parent is the hardest thing in the world... the psychological toll it takes on you because these lives are in your hands. I take it very seriously.

The one thing about being a parent is the ability to be selfless: To give up the things you want and need for the benefit of someone else.

Parents, you know, can be terrible.

When you become a parent, you really care that you get that right, and you care about nothing else.

When you become a parent, that's a whole new level of life intruding. Nobody tells you how boring and time-sucking it's going to be! Or how the responsibility feels like an airbag going off in your life.

For some people, becoming a parent does change them, but it never changed me.
