It seems you're confusing unconditional love with unconditional support

Every member of a family deserves that unconditional love. It's the first place where they learn what love truly is. They need to learn that love can overlook ones faults.

That said, not every member deserves unconditional support. They have to earn it by being responsible. If a child decides to become a thief, a parent shouldn't support them. In fact, love would make them speak against the child's act

When you love someone, there are certain lines you'll draw for that person's good. You let the person know how much you love them; and at the same time, what lines you cannot cross.

Love is not a tool for manipulation. That you love someone doesn't mean you must subscribe to everything they do.
