Raising Children In God's Will (122) Chapter 2. Children's Love and Parents' Love Section 4. Love of Parents
5) The Origin of Parents' Love - 1
Where does the origin and motive of parents loving their children begin? Love between a man and a woman changes, but when we think why love centering on children who are the result of the love between a man and a woman does not change, it happens because this relationship is composed of a certain flow of vertical origin. We are sure of that.
If so, who is the subject of that vertical love? We answer, God. We need someone as the absolute, never changing subject of love who can continuously seek the object from an original position.
That love is not what husband and wife can do what they want with. That love cannot be cut off even if you want to. Man, as a horizontal being, cannot touch it.
That is why, when parents love their children, it is everlasting and unchanging. Could that ever change? (48-155)
