[QUOTE="house of cards, post: 263086, member: 2005"] I've struggled with the thoughts about unconditional love. It is so easy for me to have unconditional love for a baby, spit up, pee on me, what ever, they are still precious. Have a child come at you with a two by four, its impossible for me to feel all warm and fuzzy, it is impossible for me to like that child at that time....but, I still want the best for that child, I'll still require that child to go in the house...or I would search him down. I'd call for help if I thought it best and not because I am afraid of the child but because I have unconditional love for him, because I won't quit on my job to parent him to the best of my abilities. To me, that is unconditional love, occassionally minus the "like them" part. I do believe there are situations where the love is destroyed, I don't have any answers for that, except to understand that there must be a ton of pain all around, but I don't get the sense that you are talking about that, it seems to me that you are being too hard on yourself looking for warm feelings from your heart while being treated badly, hope youi are having a better day today.
