The leading cause of death for girls 15 to 19 worldwide is not accident or violence or disease; it is complications from pregnancy. Girls under 15 are up to five times as likely to die while having children than are women in their 20s, and their babies are more likely to die as well.
Having children is my greatest achievement. It was my saviour. It switched my focus from the outside to the inside. My children are gifts, they remind me of what's important.
Having children, they're not your property. They need to figure out their own views. I think my daughters have a pretty healthy self-awareness, but I can't speak on their behalf.
Having children is like having a bowling alley installed in your brain.
I am a night owl. I always have been... and I'd like to think I always will be, although surely having children will put a stop to my nightly affairs with myself.
I would have liked having children to some degree, but frankly I haven't got the time to take the kids to the goddamn ballgame.
I think having children is the most amazing thing.
Having children truly ends adolescence. We are all either parents or children: responsibility-takers or those who demand from others.
Having children changes you forever, as a writer and as a human being. I hope it's for the better on both counts, but I guess we'll see.
There's really no point in having children if you're not going to be home enough to father them.
