Love for your child

In Beloved, something that I have learned as a result of reading it through Psychoanalytic Lens was the fact that I got to learn how a mothers love towards her child is unconditional and how a mother would love her child so much that they would do anything in order to protect them and keeping them getting hurt. This book has completely made me open my eyes and see the perspective of a mother and how she shows to much love and that makes me see my life personally because I used to only saw the bad side of my mother because my mom would everything she can from going far away for college and go out with my friends. My decisions are mostly being made by my mom. She decides whether I can go out-of-state for college, whether I can go to anywhere with my friends. I would honestly just would see how I have no freedom and all my choices are being made instead of me actually making those decision. Reading this book help me see the reason why a mother does what she does. My mom you can say does everything she can to always be by her side, and always keep me at home so she see everything that I am doing. Relating this back to my close reading blogs I would take Paul D’s side because in this situation a mothers love is dangerous because once we leave our mothers side they are heartbroken and mother just think about you and worry about you once you're in college. That is why Paul D says that you should only “love just a little bit... [so you have] a little love left over for the next one”. By a mother loving her children a little bit would help prevent her from getting hurt because she would be able to love her other children and also be their to support them for when they need her.
