Hi,
I beleive that a love of a mother to a child is not always pure love. For
example, mothers often wish for their offspring to have a high social status.
To me it seems not to come from love, but from a desire to be proud of oneself,
due to having such a "successful child". So, it does not seem pure love to me.
In this case, I would doubt if this should be called "love" at all. Don't you
think so?

Regarding "pema" - I never heard of this word. Do you know perhaps what is
the sanskrit\tibetan equivalent?
