Well, how condescending for you to assume that one's reasoning is shallow.

It can be a fatherly love, a twisted one, but one nonetheless. Some father beat his son, severely, in order to 'teach' him the brutality of real world, out of fear of his son's future, out of his love for him. It is sick, it is twisted, but still born out of love. Love is not some positive emotion that elicit positive behaviour, It can be a destructive force.
