“My mother had once given me a huge piece of advice about my children – she reminded me that they are adults far longer than they are children and that I would want to have a relationship with them long beyond them reaching maturity. My job was to get them to adulthood strong, confident, self-sufficient individuals who were ready to face the world, and by the time they were adults to see them as equals.”
