Thanks for a different perspective. To be honest with you, I had never thought of it that way.

I think most people love their children and when they see a couple like the Khans who have lost a child, especially in a war, it's like the worst thing they ever could imagine happening. Then they project how they would feel and how they are onto the people who have lost children.

Maybe that's one of the underlying problems in our society. People assume that because they are or think a certain way that others feel and do the same. We are all different, however, and as you learned at such a young age, some people really don't love their children.
