Knocked Up Celebs

Amanda Peet has one child, Francis, 2, and in the December 2009 issue of Health magazine she talks about motherhood and what it means to her.

“A lot of women feel that if they’re exerting energy in different areas of their life…it’s automatically detrimental to the child. Not the case, I think the exact opposite is true. Children need to have a role model who is able to identify her passions and go after them.”

She also says it’s very important to have friends to hang out with it becomes a great role model thing for their daughter.

“Sometimes I feel guilty about making time for my friends, but that’s a good model for Frankie, and it’s poignant to me because she’s a girl. It’s important for her to know that when I leave her, it’s to go see someone who needs me. That I have to stay on the phone right at that moment because I’m checking with a friend who’s opening a play or something like that.”

I think having an outlet is always a good thing. Being a mother is a tough job.
