When you have children
You understand Passion of a completely different nature and intensity
This passion is all to do with the need to protect
Just like a Tigress with their cubs
thats the same Passion that most of us parents identify with
The knowledge that you are prepared to ensure nothing hurts your child without you getting in the way
We all know the saying
“I can say what I like about my children, but don’t anyone else dare say it !! “
So many times I have sat telling someone about how the children have been absolute pains and wound me up something chronic, I’m looking for their understanding and their sympathy, if I get that then everything is fine, I’ve had my vent I can move along.....
IF HOWEVER
They dare to criticise my child ???????? How dare they????Who do they think they are having an opinion on my child?????? What do they know........??????
See what I mean PASSION !!!!! 
There is absolutely nothing wrong with having this kind of Passion for our child. Its all about wanting the best for them. We want them to be strong, healthy, liked, respected, successful, happy etc. Our passion for this is what motivates us to keep our child on the straight and narrow and try to train them to keep out of ALL trouble.
We recognise our passion kicking in when our child needs us. When they are ill, we are completely driven to get them the right medical attention and nursing, even a second opinion in extreme cases. Our drive is to get everything they need to be well again, we remain PASSIONATE about this until we get the answers and the help that we need.
Even in Sports events, we get Passionate about our child succeeding. We drive them to the events, we give them our own little pep talk, (even if it is totally different to what they are told by their team coaches LOL) We stand on the sidelines in all weathers cheering them on and doing celebratory dances as they win. Whilst occasionally also shouting at the Ref for mis judging our child !!!!! We are passionate about them winning and equally passionate about commiserating with them too.
We are driven by Passion to keep them away from all harmful substances, we read up on everything and look for signs that something is not right, we lecture them even when we have no reason to think they are involved in things they shouldn’t be. Our passion just wants them to be not dragged down.
We nag them about their school and homework, meeting deadlines and presenting the work well. We lap it up when they are coming home with certificates of achievement, put them in pride of place and brag about it to all who will listen. We are passionate that they are achieving the best that they can.
Our Passion for our child is what will drive us to guide them to be the best that they can be.
