What's Up with Mr. Parson?

Throughout the novel, the Parson children come and go. They are spies that will turn in everybody and anybody who disobeys Big Brother's laws. At the end after Winston was caught, he sees Mr. Parson and asks why he was there. Turns out, his own children reported him for talking in his sleep. Instead of being upset or angry with them he was happy! He was glad they turned him in and try to help him fix his negative thoughts about Big Brother. He is so obedient and oblivious, that he is proud of his own kids for turning him in for something so silly. Does he truly love big brother and his children?

Mr. Parson does love Big Brother and his children as much as one can love anyone in the party. People are "brainwashed" into loving Big Brother with things like the two minutes hate, but they are secluded in their lives, not achieving an intimate relationship with others, even family. Mr. Parson isn't very intelligent either, not to mention the effects of doublethink; he believes everything that comes out of the telescreens, even if it contradicts something it said only a week ago. It's also unsurprising that he would be proud of them for turning him in, as this is what they are taught and expected to do, it's not unusual for children to turn in their parents either. Let's not forget that if it were him, he would have gladly turned in his father.

i agree with XPersonX, in that Mr. Parson does love Big Brother and his children. Mr. Parson is an example of an uneducated, loyal blue collar worker.
Mr. Parson is proud of what his children have done to help the party. He likes how they have turned in traitors which in turn could have hurt their leader, Big Brother. His children are the ones most brainwashed of all the generations, because they have grown up in the outer party and not the proles which contain more humanity. The inner and outer party children are the ones used for spy's, because they can easily keep an eye on family and neighbors. While prole children don't have an urge to turn in their parents or family to feel like they have made a contribution to their country.
Ultimately Mr. Parson loves anything that benefits Big Brother no matter how small the action is or how outrageous it may be. Mr. Parson would turn in his wife if he felt she was plotting against Big Brother. Mr. Parson loves his children not in a fatherly way but a way that if they benefit Big Brother they are doing the right thing.
