Honestly not sure as it sounds like it could be read as him loving his family or just seeing them as a legacy. If all we know is he kept them capable of surviving but no clear affection towards them I lean towards thinking it a pragmatic desire for a legacy to leave after he dies, if enough evidence outside just making them strong to carry on a legacy I'd say cut as any genuine love is by default disqualifying. Sorry just not super familiar to where I can say I get a strong stance either direction.
