Lorebook: Parenting

Parenting refers to the generation and subsequent upbringing of posterity ("descendants"). Parenting plays a significant role in identity. The All-Creator is the first "Parent".

Generation

Generation is the process by which a being is brought into the world, if the All-Creator wills to it. It is often but not always the intent of its implementer(s). Like parenting in general, is intimately connected to love, and therefore for People, intimately connected to marriage and romance.

Upbringing

Upbringing involves the care for and teaching of posterity who will continue on with or without the parents. While most upbring posterity they themselves generated, it is worth noting that some who generate posterity do not upbring them, and that some upbring posterity who they did not originally generate.

Posterity

Those generated and/or brought up by parents are known as posterity. Those generated and/or brought up by someone are known for taking part in their mission together with them before they pass on and/or carrying on that mission afterwards. The posterity of Florauna are known for carrying on their parents' traits as well.
