How are you at giving people of your time?

That’s where I’m really selfish and I don’t know how to break out of the habit.

I think it’s important to keep as much time as you need for yourself. Anything left over is what other people get.

What about demanding children. Do you just tell them no, go entertain yourself?

Very good, as I don’t need it.

My mom did! But, no, if you have kids then it’s about them and their well-being. I would have never thought I could be a really present mom until I had my son and I was absolutely devoted to him.
I think we don’t know what we’re capable of sometimes until we have to do something and find out that we can.
