  1. @HappyHourBoston Nailbiters beyond the age of 3 may be helped by a manicure set.
  2. To a greater or lesser degree, siblings squabble because of their jealousy. Each would like to be favored by the parents.
  3. It generally works better if parents keep out of most of the fights between children who can stand up for themselves.
  4. @shortyawards I vote for @peggyolson in #advertising because she has the strength to do what's best for a child.
  5. Nail-biting is a sign of tenseness. It is more common in high-strung, worrisome children.
  6. @ellenfweber @rosyblue Thanks for spreading the word.
  7. Some mothers have to work to make a living. Usually their children turn out all right.
  8. @kpress Of course, you are a wonderful mother, too. But my allegiance in this case must go to Mrs. Draper.
  9. @shortyawards I nominate @bettydraper for a Shorty Award in #entertainment because...she is such a good mother.
  10. When women are encouraged to be competitive, too many of them become disagreeable.
  11. @harrycrane Many pregnant women find that a massage is an excellent way to rejuvenate and relax.
  12. In automobile terms, the child supplies the power but the parents have to do the steering.
  13. It would save money in the end if the government paid a comfortable allowance to mothers of young children who would otherwise have to work.
  14. How much a separation will damage the child's security depends very largely on how the whole matter is handled.
  15. To a man's way of thinking, men make all the difference. Women, of course, have always known otherwise.
  16. There are only two things a child will share willingly: communicable diseases and his mother's age.
  17. The surest measure of a man's or a woman's maturity is the harmony, style, joy, and dignity he creates in his marriage.
  18. Trust yourself. You know more than you think you do.
  19. Usually, the first year or two after divorce, children are more tense, demanding and complaining; they are simply less attractive.
  20. Happiness is mostly a by-product of doing what makes us feel fulfilled.
