Feeling
Introduction
Responsibility
Attention
Mutual respect
Erich Fromm in his best -selling book states that the four symptoms: care, responsibility, respect, knowledge appear all in a balanced person who loves.

While responsibilities and care without real respect & without a sense of wanting to know more deeply will plunge parents, teachers, clerics, and other individuals in an authoritarian attitude.
