Parents' Love
Folktale
by Austin A.
Once there was a boy who could never understand his parents' love. One day he even asked a teacher at school about it but he still did not understand. And as he grew up he still could never understand their love.
Until one day when he was full grown and was married and had a baby boy, he loved his baby boy and then he realized he now could understand his parents' love since he was a parent and loved his son.
And as his son grew he too could not understand his parents' love. He even went on asking his friends about it and they didn't understand either. So one day he asked his father about his parents' love but his father said, "you may not understand our love now but when you're married and have a baby you'll understand. It's perfectly normal not to understand when you're that age. In fact I didn't understand until I had you.
