Ironically, parenting is a shame and judgment minefield precisely because most of us are wading through uncertainty and self-doubt when it comes to raising our children.
I'd like to have a kid, but I'd probably get a Frank Sinatra Jr. instead of a Gilbert Gottfried Jr. I'd totally screw up like that.
I don't think I've ever been as scared in my life as I was to be extraordinarily honest with my kids.
Becoming a parent is actually terrifying. A lot of people have that feeling about their dogs. And if you're the kind of person who's going to have that feeling about a dog you're definitely going to have that about a child.
Parenting is the most important thing to many of us, and so it's also the place we're most vulnerable. We're all a little afraid we're doing it wrong.
Being responsible for another human life terrifies me, because I kill plants.
The whole thought of being a dad was scary to me.
I'd love to be a dad. I hope I'd be great at it. That's every man's fear, yet his most important job.
In parenthood, there's so much fear around parenting in this day and age, and there's so much fear around technology.
