Letitia Elizabeth Landon - Mother: Children and sorrow...

Mother:
Children and sorrow come together. First
Are sleepless nights, and cradle watchings - next
Your age is vexed with maiden fantasies,
And your girl's lover costeth you more care
Than ever did your own. It is not well! (Letitia Elizabeth Landon)

[Among the Arapeh... both father and mother are held responsible for child care by the entire community...] If one comments upon a middle-aged man as good-looking, the people answer: 'Good-looking? Ye-e-e-s? But you should have seen him before he bore all those children.
