I get more done now that I have a child. Parenthood forces you focus on actually productive work and eliminate everything else.


Well, OK, that is true. When our first was born, we both started grad school, so DO AS I SAY, NOT AS I DO! I used to laugh at how much we got done in comparison with the childless people we were going to school with, and doing a cognitive science study on my daughter's acquisition of motor skills was also informative.

I still wouldn't want to bet on that...
