“Your children deserve you right now …
because ten years from now, your children will be grown and on their own …
your opportunity [to work] will still be there because your talent is there.
Ten years from now, you will still be able to follow your talents and goals, but ten years from now, your children will not be children anymore.
They will be adults, and you cannot rewind that and you cannot get that time back… and you can’t say ‘That will wait’ because it won’t wait.
They [your children] need you right now … your child needs you right now.
It shouldn’t be called attachment parenting or co-sleeping or losing your ‘me-time’ …this is nothing new …
It’s just called mothering.
Motherhood does not enslave you …
– it frees you.”
