"...or else we're through" very much applies to parents and children too.

@Sapphyre sadly, you’re not wrong. I am of the belief that that type of love only has the possibility of existing in betwixt parents and child. Unfortunately, it’s not guaranteed.

Very much so... my parents were among my greatest detractors and enemies in life. I'm actually surprised at how often parental relations are held in esteem. o.o
I'm curious what you suspect is the enabling factor for unconditional love, though?

@Sapphyre I’ve wondered that my whole life. It’s something I’ve never felt, but, in my best estimation, it can’t be described in words. It carries it’s own language and is simply felt. I think if we were to find the ‘formula’, it would lose meaning and fall prey to the bludgeoning forces of society. It’s purity is so powerful, but oft so hard to find. It simply is; that’s why it’s amazing.
