I don't think I exemplified my point very well, lol.

If you are raised to believe a thing, and you believe it wholeheartedly, it can be extremely difficult to break out of it. Even in the face of losing your child. If you honestly believe that what you're doing/going to do is best for the child, you do it.

My sister was a drug addict. On and off for my entire childhood. My mom helped her, of course, until she simply couldn't do it anymore. She cut her off, both to protect me and for my sister's own good. That's kind of what I mean. But some times what a parent will do is extreme, even crazy, but I think that even those parents think what they're doing is for the best.
