Usually whatever mess your kids get into you stand by them and make excuses for them, but if they treat you with disrespect and rudeness you must think about it.

Many people say that their love is unconditional, but they are not being honest.
True unconditional love is how every family should operate. If a family shares true unconditional love than they will weather any storm. With children, you know you give true unconditional love when they will tell you anything because they know you will listen and help them if they are in trouble.
True unconditional love between spouses works the same way. Total honesty and total openness.
Take care,
Troy

Rarely. Although parents may promise this to their children, the love is usually contingent upon whether or not the child follows the parents' rules and dictates for that child's life. Parents usually hope that their children will be carbon copies of them, and they award approval based on how well the child meets this criteria. Often, I believe people have children because they are not satisfied with their own lives and want to live them over again.

I believe it is, but if parent or child keeps causing major traumas to the other, a parent or child with cut off the relative from spending time with them. They'll quit talking to them because it is too painful. This however doesn't mean they don't love them. It's just the bodies way of protecting itself. Sometimes it just has to be done for self-preservation. I think God puts the instinct to love in child/parent. It's up to each of them to treat each other right to carry on physically to the end.

My love for my children is unconditional . I could forgive them anything. I also have unconditional love for my partner. The only way I would lose that feeling was if he cheated on me. but otherwise I can forgive him anything. Even when he is being an **** as he sometimes does

Without a doubt - I think this is the only relationship where I would give unconditional love. Even if they do something wrong you make excuses for them. You really would do anything for your children. Would not be so tolerant of my husband.

Yes love is unconditional. There is something there which means you know that no matter what happens you will always love them. Respect is a completely different thing and you od not have to respect or even like someone to love them.

yes it is my love for my mom is like no other even though we've been through so much. The love she has for my sisters is crazy too because they hurt this lady so much but she still gives them her all. It's really rediculous but i would never understand that love until i have my own children but really it is unconditional.

In some. It all depends on the family. BUT if its between a parent and child, its probably more common than between parent and parent.

No I dont think it is.. We inflict expectations of our children, children sometimes only attempt to live up to them because they feel they will let their parents down or dissapoint them and lose their love. So in the childs view the love must have conditions attached.
