Quote by Gwen Stefani
When you first have a baby your life doesn't change. I mean, you have a little less sleep and you drag these cuddly things around you and it's just amazing. But you still get to be you. Once they get to, like, five, six and school and it starts to get, like, 'Wow, they got real problems. They're my responsibility.' Oh my God. That is overwhelming.
Summary
This quote highlights the transformative experience of having a baby. Initially, the speaker acknowledges that having a newborn only brings minor changes to one's life, such as sleep deprivation and constant physical attachment. It is described as an amazing but manageable phase. However, as the child grows older and enters school, the responsibility of being a parent intensifies. The quote expresses the overwhelming feeling of realization that the child's problems become the parent's responsibility, which can be emotionally challenging and demanding.
