What I have most learned from my son is to respect him and to love him unconditionally.

It must be given willingly as a result of strength of good character in the parents, which is manifested by their non-reaction to stress in the children.
I think the love small children give to their parents is unconditional. Even if children are abandoned or nearly killed by their parents, they will still love them. No matter what. That's why parents shouldn't let their children go, no matter what. She betrayed my love. I don't want to see her.
