All the parents love their children. Each parent will express their love in a different way. Some will pet them, some will kiss them, some will get them their favourite toys, beautiful dresses and shoes. Some will play with them. We take our children to any amusement park or to any good restaurents and get them their favourite ice=cream. How did you express your love and affection towards your children?

My children receive my love first and foremost, they receive everything they need in the lines of clothes, food, drink, etc. I try to limit their non essentials, though, what I do buy, I buy the best of, so that it will last them. I talk to them all daily and make it a must to tell them I love them at least once a day.

Hi cicisnana
I think you are the excellent mom i have known. Yes need our love and care and I too will make them realilze how much I love them, by playing and teasing and kidding them which they simply enjoy and they too will react and behave with me as if i am not their mother but a good friend. In this way I will see that they get all the necessary comforts, love,affection and care from their parents and at the same time I am a tough mom too when they err.

that would be a beautiful thing if all parents really loved their child or children.but unfortunely all parents don.t love there kids.my parents never loved me.i always felt and seen how they treated me.it wasn,t love when you beat your child leaving your child black and blue.i forgave my parents many years ago but we still don,t have a good relationship.unfortunely we don,t choose the parents we are given.i raised my children with the idea of being the best parent i could be showering them with so much love and affection.by telling them how much i love them never wanting them to feel pain.children are a blessing from god.

Hi annjilena
Really it is saddening to note that some people does not love their children, I do not know why. I hate any parents beating the children and scolding them and comparing them with other children thus helping them to grow inferiority complex. Instead, they can tell them patiently what their mistake is and help them to correct it in a loving manner. I too agree that children are a blessing from God and we should love them and take very good care of them

All parents should love their children. I wish it was the case that all parents did love their children.
While my children were growing up I guess I did all of those things you have listed above, but the most important way I showed love for each of my girls was in giving them the tools they would need to live an indepentent full happy life.
I made sure they always knew that college was an important goal to attain. I taught them to make choices that would be good for them and not hurt others in the process. I expected the best from them and realized that one child's best was not to every be compared to another child's best.
I made mistakes, but I let them know that everyone makes mistakes and that we should always learn something from our mistakes. I taught them That God, family work and religion were all important parts of life and as long as God and family were first then the rest would fall into place.
I did a good job and am blessed with happy productive women as daughters now.

Hi wolf
Whether married or not, children are loved by all. Their way of playing, laughing, runnning with their tiny legs, every thing is just enjoyable. Even I like the cries of the new born babies.
