Sotah 49a
"דאמרי אינשי
רחמי דאבא אבני, רחמי דבני אבני דהוו ליה"
'The love of a father, is for his children.
The love of his children are for their children."
(more love to your children than to your parents)
We find in this weeks Parsha . Yehudah was pleading
to Yosef to allow Binyomin to return to his father
otherwise his father (Yakov) will die. Why not plead
about the suffering of Binyomin's ten sons ?
The Kotzker Rebbe answers "From here we see
parents are in more pain when their children are
suffering than the pain children have when their parents
are suffering".

The Zohar( Parshas V’yechi) writes ," people love
their grandchildren more than their own
children."
