Moms are as versatile as dads.
I’m just one of many moms who will say an extra prayer each night for our sons and daughters going into harm’s way.
My mother used to dress rather risque when I was a kid, and that sort of shocked me. I always thought moms were supposed to wear cardigans and flats, but she was in leather bracelets and minidresses. In hindsight, it was pretty cool, but I’m probably more conservative because of it.
Moms, you should parent in whatever way works for your family and spend less time worrying about other people’s perceptions of how you’re doing.
I think that when moms just give themselves up, the kids know. They feel guilty; they resent their mother for making them feel guilty, and then they grow up and do the same thing. Whereas my mother showed me that it’s okay to focus on yourself.
I want to be one of those moms and women that when I look back, I know that I always stayed focused.
We’ve overmedicated kids. Quite frankly, some of the overmedication of kids are because welfare moms want to get additional benefits, and if they can put them on SSI through maintenance drugs, they can also put them on Social Security disability and get a separate check. That is wrong on every single level.
Once upon a time, the homemaker was just Mom, but now we’ve evolved and come to a place where we’re celebrating grandmas, grandpas, moms, dads – all the people that keep it safe and clean for our kids – and the overall health for ourselves so we can continue to function and do the variety of things we all do.
Moms and daughters can negotiate over anything, and they can go on longer than it took to settle the Vietnam War.
I do know I will enjoy family life. What I’ve seen from moms, or heard stories from people who became a parent, it’s such a consuming thing; it’s such a wonderful thing. I consider it an extreme luxury to have that time and to not have to do anything else, and just be with my kid.
My mom always taught me – you know, little boys listen to their moms too much – that whatever you put into something is what you’re going to get out of it.
When new moms and dads can better support their families and give our youngest Americans the healthiest, most loving start to life, we all benefit.

The one advice that I would give just to moms who have a child or a newborn is definitely sleep while the baby sleeps. I’ve heard that so many times. I never realized how true it really is. If you don’t, you’ll be walking around like a zombie.
Of the many horrors of divorce, the most egregious is that it robs a kid of the best of both worlds. Dads can do many things that even the best moms can’t, and vice versa.
Working with people from all walks of life, from full-time moms to CEOs at large companies, I’ve distilled many universal truths about success. There’s a secret I’ve learned that works quite well at helping you to achieve what you want: Decide what you want.
I think there should be better child support laws to make it easier for those single moms to support their children so they don’t have to go on welfare.
I hope all the kids out there who don’t like listening to their mothers, who yell and scream at them, that moms are always right just so you guys know.

Millennials are always on their phones and it’s running their lives, but you know who is also on their phones? Moms and Dads and also some dogs… everyone is on their phone all the time.
My purpose is to refuel, refresh and rejuvenate moms.
I’ve had soccer moms come up and tell me they can relate when I say that I want to throw my baby in the trash.
Most of the people I know in the film business here in New York, the moms and the dads, just take different turns working. So everybody’s a working parent, and nobody bats an eyelash at it.
I give and give, and sometimes I can’t find me. I’m sure many moms and wives go down that same rabbit hole.
I think there’s a lot of moms who just aren’t feeling protected. And that’s one of the prime purposes of the federal government, is the security of our nation.
I think with boys… it’s all about shoes. I’ve seen so many little boys, and their outfits are so cute, and then their moms put kind of dorky shoes on them.
Picture books have terrible PR amongst the children of this country. Ask any librarian: after a certain age, children just aren’t interested in the picture book section anymore. It’s filled with moms, strollers, and unbalanced toddlers.
By the time I left ‘Dance Moms,’ I’d made so many friendships.
I can see how the young girls really get hurt when their moms are critical, or vice versa when they’re overly critical of their moms. It can be so painful.
I’ve played so many moms, best friends, sisters and understanding people.
I knew ‘Mars Needs Moms! ‘ would be a movie seconds after the title came to mind. Similarly, I also knew that my daughter would be calling me a dork as a default term of endearment eventually.
Most single moms are very poor, uneducated, can’t get a job, and if it weren’t for government assistance, their kids would be starving to death and never have health care. And that’s the story that we’re not seeing, and it’s unfortunate that we glorify and glamorize the idea of out of children wedlock.
It’s important for moms, but also dads, to recognize that they’re role models when it comes to their kids’ physical health, when it comes to working out, and when it comes to nutrition.
There are certainly other female comics who are moms, but I don’t know any who are actively touring with their kids. But there are more and more becoming moms, and it’s awesome. I feel we’re in a super sisterhood.
I get a lot of letters that say, ‘I’m a normal, down-to-earth girl. I love to cook, and I love sports.’ What I also get are letters from a whole bunch of moms saying, ‘My daughter is awesome,’ and, ‘My daughter is a great daughter.’
I’m lucky enough to be stopped on the street for two things, usually: for ‘It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia,’ and for ‘Workin’ Moms.’
It’s the moms who are overaggressive. A lot of times their daughters are very sweet and cordial, and the moms tend to grab you and scream and want to kiss you. You gotta watch out for the moms.
David Stern should get with the mothers of the NBA and let the moms decide what the dress code should be. I asked my mother if I could wear a chain, and she told me yeah. So I do stuff that my parents allow me to do.
I’m not one of those Hollywood moms where my kid is three weeks old and I’m a size zero. I’m a real woman and I’m a working woman and a working mom.
People don’t realize how many of the homeless are single moms, and a lot of veterans, and people with mental illness.
Do not judge other moms on how they raise their children.
We should be encouraging moms to breastfeed their infants, not discouraging it by unfairly judging and discriminating against nursing mothers.
Sometimes I feel like women of the world who are single moms and are working in Walmart are the strongest women out there, and that’s what’s really exciting to me is being all these different types of women.
Moms that get evicted are depressed and have higher rates of depressive symptoms two years later. That has to affect their interactions with their kids and their sense of happiness. You add all that together, and it’s just really obvious to me that eviction is a cause, not just a condition, of poverty.
My mom was one of the moms who was like, ‘You are so handsome why aren’t you modeling? I am handsome, but model… let’s not get crazy.
Most families need both parents to work. Moms need to be able to work and earn fair pay and have the flexibility in their jobs to also be primary caretakers.
I really feel like because I had my son so young, I didn’t want everyone’s help. I think people felt entitled to give advice, so I’m always very sensitive to moms and letting them feel their way out.
As moms, we have so much on our plates. We’re busy, and our family depends on us for a lot of things.
I think we are not yet well aware that, unfortunately, we have a short time to be moms. This is not to suggest that we should rush to have children or do it in a crazy way. I think that’s the most important decision of a woman’s life.
I gots to make the dough to support myself and my disabled moms. God bless her soul. I live to bleed for that woman. I want to go as far as my power will take me.
There are so many single moms and dads out there, and we are all just trying to pick up the pieces together. It’s hard.
I used to tell moms that for the sake of their well-being they had to put themselves first. But I know now that’s not always possible.
