The beginning of parenting can be a beautiful and learned time; always experiencing something new, being in touch with yourself, your husband, and your child. Your whole life is flipped upside down and everything you thought you knew about the world is different. You're a new you, and you have forsaken your past identity. It can be stressful to say the least, and that level of stress and caring can make you go a little coo-coo.

You want to protect your child from everything in the world, you care so deeply about doing everything right you can also lose a bit of yourself. And this can be amplified when you have more than one kid. First kid gets all the practices you developed in your parenting books, by the second and third, you start to forget what it all means. 

When your kids start to grow up, you can develop a healthy sense of apathy at protecting them. At a certain point you have to devote your life to yourself again and let your kids handle the world in their own way. You're confident in yourself as a Mother, a wife, and a woman.

    Realize that sleeping on a futon when you're 30 is not the worst thing. You know what's worse, sleeping in a king bed next to a wife you're not really in love with but for some reason you married, and you got a couple kids, and you got a job you hate. You'll be laying there fantasizing about sleeping on a futon. There's no risk when you go after a dream. There's a tremendous amount to risk to playing it safe. - Bill Burr
