3 Points of Milton mayeroff in caring
The goal of caring is to help the other actualize himself Caring is an extension of one’s self- apart from his power to satisfy the parent’s needs Devotion and constancy are essential elements of caring: essential to care, integral part of friendship. Caring for another helps the other to care for and about other: to help other grow

8 How society discourages honesty?

9 Few more thoughts on emotional honesty
Dishonest requires more energy than emotional honesty Emotionally dishonest- lose out on the value of natural feelings, against the forces of evolution(growth) rather than harmony(accord)
