Wow, irrationally crazy about him or her….this cought my attention. It is dangerous when their is unhealthy love between an adult and wards. Great post Tom

Parents seem to be wired this way towards their children. Sometimes it’s on such extreme levels it only serves to deteriorate a child’s emotional, mental, and physical well being. But being on the moderate, balanced side of things will help the child to grow into a fine human being when he or she comes of age.

I agree, there must be a balance between crazyness and rationality, other way the life would feel like a trap. At the end we are all a bit a crazy anyways.

Man’s got a point. Being praised with love especially in the young developing years is a great way to build confidence.

This quote rings very true. In essence every child needs someone who loves them to the moon and back.

I think the adult in question here is the mother. Nothing beats a mother’s love.

I totally agree with this. Kids as normal, needs an attention. We should give all the love and attention we have to them.

This is a nice quote, as I agree with it. During my childhood age, my parents don’t leave me to any shits, they have systematic way of making me see the wrongs and rights. Thanks for sharing this quote Tom.

I agree. Especially if the love bug bites you. I am not just talking about romantic type here but all of it. ROMANTIC, LOVE for a job, Family etc. There is just something about it that makes people go crazy. May it be a kid or as an adult.
