He’s basically warning her not to her innocence get the best of her and to be very careful when it comes to giving her love to Hamlet. If this is not amazingly helpful advice then I don’t know what is. It’s important for her to hear this because people can be so blind when it comes to love. Polonius as well gives some parental advice to his daughter Ophelia. He calls her foolish for believing anything Hamlet says to her.
He tells her in a very direct manner; "Then weigh what loss your honor may sustain if with too credent ear you list his songs, or lose your heart, or your chaste treasure open" Laertes is warning Ophelia that before committing herself to Hamlet she needs to think about what he can offer her and how safe she would be with him. She does the only thing she knows how to do, she obeys without question. She doesn’t realize it but her obedience and innocence is stirring up drama.

In the novels, the Diallos are much more capable parents than Baba. Firstly, both Mr. and Mrs. Diallo are caring and want the best for their daughter, Aminata. Aminata recalls her father’s caring manner, “Put those silly children out of your mind, Papa said. Stay close to your Mama and me, don’t go out wandering alone, and you will be fine.” (Hill, 17-18) In fear of stories about missing children, Aminata approaches her parents. This presents a close relationship between the two because Aminata is comfortable speaking to her parents about her concerns.
I love obvious and in fact simple sentences like “love is more beneficial than hate“. I mean everybody knows that love is more beneficial than hate, but she uses such statements, because they are easy to understand and therefore they aren‘t hard to remember and you keep them in mind. It emphasizes the importance of love as the number one thing for a peaceful life. In this paragraph she also talks about forgiveness and charity. Terrible things happened to her, especially in her childhood.
Another similarity between Ophelia and Gertrud is that they both possess a submissive nature. When Hamlet’s supposed madness is the big concern, Gertrude lovingly sides with her husband in the analysis of her son’s condition. She later confides her family supporting thoughts in Ophelia. This proves that she is attempting to keep a loving relationship with the young lady of the court, even though Ophelia is of a lower social stratum. Familial love is first among Gertrude’s priorities, which shows her submissive nature.
Unfortunately, my sister and I adore pointing out each other’s flaws and relish this “pointing out of flaws” even more when our parents do it for us.

When either of my parents is “lecturing” my sister or me, the sibling not being lectured snickers delightfully, while the sibling receiving the lecture is slightly unsettled that they are being disciplined. Naturally, the sibling who is being disciplined develops a slight, yet temporary flush of anger; thankfully, the “anger” doesn’t last very long and is abandoned within half an hour, at most. The anger is present, however short its duration.
He says that he loves her, but that she is behaving inappropriately. In the same way, he tries to give her advice about her father in a way that is not offensive. He warns, “How far your eyes may pierce I cannot tell. / Striving to better, oft we mar what's well” (I.iv.352-353). She brushes off this warning without a thought and Albany does not argue with her.

He feels the wives are the ones to take care of the children and that children listen to mothers more. “It seems most commonly to be the mother's influence, though naturally a bad father's would have the same result." (Act 1 Scene 1 line 39. )We meet Nora as carfree and loving. She seems like the doting wife, who loves taking care of her children and her husband.
Rogers to help her get rid of feelings of guilt for having slept with a single man and was concerned that Dr. Rogers was going to let her stew in her own feelings. Dr. Rogers was being genuine when he empathized with Gloria over this concern.
