How far a parents love...?

How far would you go to protect your children?
Would you lie if needs be to protect them if you knew they were guilty of a crime?
Would you do their homework for them, if they had to hand in work you knew they would never complete in time... simply because they were lazy or perhaps disorganised?
Would you be a surrogate?... give birth to your own grandchild?

If it's important that each of us learn to take responsibility for our actions... are we doing more harm than good if as parents we continue to shield and protect our offspring, from the consequences of their own actions?

That car loan..
The mortgage down payment..
turning a blind eye to a sons or daughters philandering or bed hopping
Making excuses, where there should be none....

Is that love?
To block the path of self growth?.. to live in denial?
