Medea's love for her children is complex and deeply intertwined with her emotional turmoil and sense of betrayal. While she initially exhibits a strong maternal bond and even sacrifices for their well-being, her intense feelings of rage and desire for revenge against Jason ultimately lead her to commit the unthinkable act of murdering them. This tragic decision suggests that her love is overshadowed by her anguish and the desire for retribution, highlighting the conflict between maternal instinct and personal vendetta.

Medea was very upset, because she had fallen in love with the hero, Jason, and said that she would help him as long as he married her. He agreed.
