Beyonce In No Rush For Children
"I’m not in a rush to have children. Because I work so much, I’m just not ready yet. I have a nephew… I was there in the delivery room when he was born.
"I had begged my sister, please don’t make me, ‘cos its going to traumatize me. But she talked me into it - and I was right! I’m scared of that!
"I mean it was amazing and I cried when he was born. And I can’t believe that we as human beings have the power to create another human being. But it’s hard.
It’s a lot of work and you have to be ready to be responsible for another human being."
-- Beyonce on motherhood
And just because we are on Beyonce - I found this great quote about her mother putting the singer in her place as a teen.
"There have been times where my mom has literally smacked me in my face. When I was 19 - when I was confused and wondering what am I doing, who am I? - we were in the record store, my mom and dad were both there, and my song was playing, and I was feeling like hot stuff.
"She was asking me something and I started singing while she was talking to me. And there were some really cute guys in the store who were noticing me, and I was like, ‘Oh yeah! I’m hot!’ And my mom said, ‘I’m talking to you’. And I kept singing. And so she smacked me - slapped me in my face, so hard.
"And my dad said, ‘What are you doing?’ Because I didn’t get spankings growing up. They didn’t believe in that. My mom says, ‘She thinks she’s hot stuff ‘cos her single is out. Nobody cares about that! You are still my child.
I brought you into this world, I can take you out of it! Now go sit in the car’.But it was the best thing she could have ever done to me because for the first time I realized I was losing sight of what was important."

Beyonce looks gorgeous in that pic. She looks so much better when she tones it down and doesnt try too hard!

AWWWWWW! Isn't she the most humble human being ever?????????? She is smacked by saying she is hot! How cute! But she sings about all the money she got, the records she sold and the brand names she owns even in her Christmas songs! How humble!

I agree with what she says. I know it may not sound acceptable to some people, but my husband and I are just wwaaayyy to selfish to even think about having kids right now. We like our simple traveling. But when we're ready we'll dive in head first and put that child on a pedistal.
She makes me sick, I pray that she gets knocked up so she can go away!
How can her mother take her out of this world? By murdering her? That's a weird statement "I brought you into this world, I can take you out of it" ... no, you can't take your daughter out of the world ... unless you murder her. Wtf?

Parenting can be very hard and many people are criticized for the way they parent their children but i always say that a person can only parent the way they know how to.
some parent yell alot and others don't, some use corporal punishment and others choose to just punish by giving time outs or grounding.
Kids can be so bloody annoying and angelic at the same time so it's like an emotional roller-coaster, you wanna kill them now for drawing with your $30 lipstick and the next 5 minutes they come and give you a hug while saying "I love you mommy, you are the best mommy in the whole wide world" *grrrrrr* soooooo.....people should really think long and hard before having a child so i agree with beyonce about waiting.
Yeah I can see her mother doing that. LOL
there are too many people who jump right into having kids before they are ready. if more people did that, then there probably wouldn't be so many out of control kids. as parents all you can do is raise your child the best way you know how and hope for the best. a lot of people have kids way to early and most don't do it for the right reasons. i.e. to keep a man, to fix problems in a relationship, to get child support, etc. so, i think its smart she is waiting until she grows up some more. how could anybody possibly disagree or have something negative to say about that?
You know I just bought a dress that looks exactly like this in black and it's also available in charcoal grey. It's the brand Merona and available at Target. Do you think Beyonce would buy and wear a Target dress with all that money she has?

Her mom totally ripped that statement off of a famous episode of Bill Cosby's The Cosby Show. It was the episode when Theo had failed another class and told his dad he wouldn't go to school anymore and they had a life lesson with Monopoly money... lol. Anyways Bill said "I brought you in this world, and I'll take you out!"
It's right after the opening.
sweetie, i don't know how old you are, or what your ethnicity is, but a lot of people used that saying in the early 80s. bill did not make it up---that was a common expression among african-americans at the time.
I'm glad her mom smacked some sense into her, but I don't think it lasted long. Afterall, they are living off of her (dad is manager, mom is her stylist and co-designer of house of dereon).
Dude, plenty of parents say that. She didn't copy Bill Cosby!!!!! My mother used/still says that to me today! LOL
hahahaha, you got smacked at age 19 haha LMFAO
