What a cruel trick parents play on their children.
Birthing them, nurturing them, raising them, teaching them.
Encouraging them, challenging them, cheering them.
Misleading them.
"It will be all right." when it is broken.
"You can do it." when you can't.
"I know, I know." when I don't .
Lies.
"I love you."
The only truth.
