Ayelet Waldman: I love my husband more than my kids

| | Comments (1)

Ayelet Waldman, writing in the NY Times today, says: "If a good mother is one who loves her child more than anyone else inthe world, I am not a good mother. I am in fact a bad mother. I love my husband more than I love my children."
Now on one hand, I think this is Waldman's shtick; on the other hand, she's a terrific writer and her shtick sure interests me. And when she had a blog--it rocked.

No, actually it depends on the person. If you really love your husband than your kids it doesnt mean that youre a bad mother. What important is you still love them (kids) but lesser coz you love him better at least you know how to love unlike others.
