Mothers and children are human beings, and they will sometimes do the wrong thing.

Mothers are great. They outlast everything. But when they're bad, they're the worst thing that can happen.

Parents don't make mistakes because they don't care, but because they care so deeply.

There's all kinds of mothers, so to use the label 'mother' and to think you really understood all that a human being is because she's a mother, is a mistake.

My mom is a typical mother.

Everybody thinks they have the answer to how to be a good parent. Here's mine: Everybody's gonna make mistakes.

I'm not Mr. Mom, but there's just certain things I won't say anymore.

I'm a mother myself, and sometimes mothers get a bad rap just because they've tried to do their job. Some people have more of a knack for it than others do, but almost all of it falls to, 'My mother's suffocating me.' Whatever.

Women often have a fraught relationship with their mothers, even though that's the most important relationship in their lives.

The thing about dads is, even when they're very good, they don't do anything like as much as most mums do.
