For love to be real, for love to be meaningful, love must be based on the truth.
When someone lies to obtain love, eventually they become paranoid that the other will learn the truth, and they will reject them for that. Eventually, they come to hate the one they lied to, to gain love, and preemptively toss them.
When someone knows the truth about you, and still loves and respects you, that is real. That is powerful.
Teaching your children to love others despite other's weaknesses, teaches them real love. You do that by loving them despite their weaknesses.
Teaching children to cope with hurtful weaknesses of others is a vital life skill.
