It is because children, who are the fruit of their parents' love, stand before them as representatives of the world.
Why do we think of people without children as being lonely?
Because children enable us to deeply experiences the circumstances of the heart of God while He created the entire universe through love.
Our children are born through us based on our motivation.
By having and loving our children we come to realize how God loved and fought for people through this course of restoration.
Children result from a concentration of parental love
Parents sacrifice for their children and return to God through their children.
They come to deeply experience parental love while loving their children.
Then they are led to feel and be aware of God's love, which is a manifestation of something original. Since those who cannot have children cannot feel this deep parental love nor come to understand God's parental love, their love is always incomplete.
What kind of children can reside in the Kingdom of Heaven?
They are those who have paid off the debt of parental love on their own.
When parents become old and senile, the sons and daughters should endure the difficulties of their care with the same heart their parents had toward them when they were little.
This means cleaning up their urine and bowel movements. Only then, will they be children of filial piety.
Parents have given their very lives for the sake of their own children.
Therefore, children should sacrifice their lives for the sake of their parents.
Since life comes from love, then sacrificing one's life in front of that love is a logical conclusion.

I say that this is not a contradiction. When children strive not to be indebted to their parents, the parents feel their worth.
If a parent has to discipline their child with a stick using their loving hands, they cry loudly after spanking their child. Would the child fight back and curse them then?

True love carries dual values in harmony.
A great mother will embrace her children while teaching them principles of becoming a person of goodness who will be able to move the world and to endure any difficulties they encounter.
This type of mother penetrates the heavenly principle.
That kind of goodness never perishes.

You give birth to a child, give your milk and think they are cute. But because of whom do you adore your child?
You should adore your child on the behalf of heaven and earth and on the account of the nation, world and God.
The power of heavenly fortune in accordance with God's love is moving beyond the world to embrace heaven and earth.
A mother should embrace and breastfeed her sons and daughters with the eager heart that she is embracing God's beloved sons and daughters on behalf of heaven and earth.

Parental love is the basis of a child's pride and happiness.
Children receive life from their parents who have created harmonious oneness in true love.
They want to be raised in such a love.
The most precious responsibility that parents have toward children is not to raise them externally, but to give them life elements of true love that will make their spirituality complete.
No matter how much a father loves his child, his love cannot match the mothers' love.
Why is this?
This is because the mother has devoted herself, even her body, suffered more for the sake of her child. Hence, we can say that she is more loving than anyone else.
In this sense, women have an elevated and precious position in the arena of emotions.
A father cannot know love to that degree that the mother has no matter how much he loves his baby. For this reason, if anyone goes to heaven, women will go to the heavenly kingdom of heart. From this standpoint, it is not bad to be born a woman.
You will come to see God is fair!

The way of true children is filial piety
When you come to know your parents, what do you do you need to do for them?
You should have filial piety in return.
Also, by going beyond your parents, you should become patriots in your nation, because your parents have had authority within the nation and the world.
Before you can become a patriot, you must first set the standard by becoming children of filial piety before your parents.
Before you can become a child of filial piety, you should be a member of the family who is proud of true brothers and sisters.
The term "family member" is a title that brings the right to sing the praises of your brothers and sisters.
A child of filial piety is precious because he respects and serves his parents with unchanging love whether he is in childhood, an adult or in old age. We call such a person a child of filial piety.
How do you become a child of filial piety?
You must align yourself with the direction of your parents' heart.
One who walks this path does not do things separately from his parents. When his parents go east, he should go east, and when they go west, he should go west.
There so be no question or debate about it.
Even if you are told to go a certain way and are told to turn back ten times, you should again turn back and follow your parents.
In your family, you are asked to offer your filial duty.
This requires that you become a fellow traveler on the path of love your parents walk, centering on your parents.
The parents' path of true love follows along with the heavenly principles.
It is not that just the parents standing by themselves, but there are invisible, vertical heavenly principles that are connected to them and work through them.
Thus, pushing you to be one with your parents is to ask you to follow the way which connects the realms of heart with the tides of history.
This is the reason why you fulfill your duty of filial piety toward your parents.
This path is also connected to the patriot, like the shoot of the bamboo.
What should patriots who faithfully serve their country do? They should walk the path of saints for the world.
If you are unable to fulfill your duty as a filial child, but you manage to become a patriot in your country, your parents will be able to say job well done.
Even if you have abandoned your parents and left home, if you become a patriot to your nation, your mother and father, even though they may have died and gone to spirit world, will praise you saying you have done extremely well.

What is a child of filial piety?
He is a person who takes responsibility for the parents' sorrow by seeking out the difficult places and fulfills his responsibility. Thereby, he brings joy to his parents.
If the parents have done ten loads of work and the child has made effort to do fifteen loads, the parents will feel joy that corresponds to five loads.
The one who makes effort by serving the parents and thinking how to fulfill such an amount is a child of filial piety. that knows no limits because they love their children eternally. Then what are genuine children like?
Genuine children are the ones who reciprocate the love of their parents eternally with a loving heart which overflows with love. This is the way of a child of filial piety.
If God needs something from His children, what would that be?
Is it for them to make a lot of money and become millionaires? Is it to be president while holding the most power in the country?
What God wanted from Adam and Eve was for them to grow up and be children of filial piety, patriots, saints and divine sons and daughters.
Have you ever thought that you should be a filial child in the family, to become a patriot in the nation, to become a saint in the world, or a divine son or daughter before heaven and earth in accordance with God's own thinking?
When you look from the viewpoint of history, all of the saints have taught about becoming such children, patriots, saints and divine sons and daughters.
When children grow up in the tradition of love, do you think they could be indifferent if their parents wanted a divorce?
Absolutely not.
The children would insist, "I am your child, I am the one with whom you are combined. You have to make whatever negotiation necessary, and you have to be great parents for me. I need you."
We must make young people and parents awaken to the fact that because of their children, parents have no right to divorce.
