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

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 isn't just parenting your own child.

Being a parent can make you a horrible person at times, because you're pushed to the limit constantly.

I'm not a role model. I say parents should parent and monitor their kids.

I don't claim to know everything about parenting, but I do know parents do their children a disservice by constantly sugarcoating their shortcomings to protect their feelings.

I worry about the kids who have too much. As a parent living in a so-called good neighborhood with children who went to private high school, I found myself spending much time in parent groups worrying about alcohol, unsupervised parties, and parents not being parents.

Parents, you know, can be terrible.

Ultimately, very few people parent their kids in ways that strike anybody else as reasoned, appropriate or sane.
