Do you believe in the saying, "The best gift a father can give his children is to love their mother."?

Question

I'm sure there are very good points as to why this may or may not hold merit in certain individual lives. I'm interested in knowing all points of views. What is yours?

Answer 1

If the mother were abusive to her children then the father's love would seem of little merit to them.

Certainly I do not believe this works in all situations, perhaps not even most.

Answer 2

I sure do.

There are too many families out there in this world that are broken up by divorce, abuse, loveless relationships...

The happiest children are the children that have parents who love each other and aren't abusive to each other.

I never knew what it felt like to know my father loved my mother,

therefore I never really knew my father.

That's what's on my mind

Answer 3

Yes....

Answer 4

No, I think the best gift would be.......to be the best FATHER. And that would include loving the mother
