I think you're spot on when you say that training up a child in love and prayers is the way to go.

It's not about creating a sense of duty, but about nurturing a sense of love and responsibility.

And when we do that, our kids will be more likely to care for us when we're old and feeble because they genuinely want to, not just because they feel obligated.

Thank you for sharing

For where you said "I am doing this for you and expect you to return later in the future", like seriously if my parents uttered that statement I would feel unloved because if truly they love me they wouldn't utter the statement, that when I would take it as an obligation, not a responsibility.

I for one agree that our parent should expect that we should reciprocate the love, care and all when it's time. But doing it all only to get the ROI is wrong, that idea is wrong. Bringing a child to the world is enough reason to care for such child.

If there's so much love in the family, the children will take it up as a responsibility and not an obligation to care for their parents when they are old either they have surplus or not

Absolutely, it's the love from parent to child and vice versa that would make it easy and natural to take it as a responsibility and duty to care for parents especially at old age.
