According to the author - writer Luu Dinh Long: " Mother understands, father loves, children have a wide path to walk on" was the idea we got from a true story: when Do Thi Dieu Ngoc - a mother and I - a father, in two generations, two different circumstances, both realized that love alone is not enough, but must understand to love properly. Two journeys - two slices of life - seem far apart but meet at the same point: the unconditional love of parents for their children, and the belief that when grown up in understanding and love, people will have enough inner strength to be happy, to step out into the world more open and compassionate".

"Therefore, 'mother understands' and 'father loves' here are not just two pieces, but two harmonious sources of energy, one soft - one steadfast, together supporting the child's steps on the journey to adulthood," author Luu Dinh Long shared.

"Mom understands, dad loves" and the desire to be understood

In the book, the stories of Master Do Thi Dieu Ngoc are meditative, profound and filled with the contemplation of a mother who has gone through many stormy seasons. Readers encounter the image of a quiet woman, from the first days of teaching her children to greet, learning how to be friends with them until watching them grow up and leave her arms, leaving only memories and faith. Her pen is as light as mist, imbued with gratitude and compassion - a love that has been tempered over the years, becoming calm and profound.

Luu Dinh Long's writings, on the other hand, carry the breath of the present, warm, youthful and close. As a journalist, he writes with the voice of a father who knows how to question himself, knows how to look at himself to learn how to be a father. From the mornings taking his children to school to the nights staying up writing letters to them, his words are simple but imbued with the philosophy of life: teaching children is not through commandments, but through living kindly, knowing how to love, knowing how to share and knowing how to take responsibility for one's own choices.

Mother understands, father loves, the road is wide for children to walk is the intersection of two writing voices, two rhythms of life - one deep, one innocent - both oriented towards family love, not shouting slogans, not teaching child-rearing skills but a gentle "dialogue" between parents and children. There, each story, each letter, each memory is like a small lamp, illuminating the path of being human. From there, readers can find themselves in the written pages: as a child who has disagreed with his parents, as a father, as a mother who has been clumsy in love or as a child within themselves who always longs to be understood by their parents.
