Well scientifically it's to reproduce and keep your species alive. I suppose one must live to do that, and grow enough to be able to reproduce and grow as a species, and parents have to love/care for their children other wise they reject them and the baby dies unless it gets adopted by another animal (either of the same or different species), so yes. I was gonna no way before I thought about it, but yes. About the loving your children thing, I realize there's other reasons a human might put their child up for adoption other than not loving it. In fact, I think most parents who give their kids up for adoption usually love their kids a whole lot, and that's why they're giving them a better life with someone else than they could have with them. I'm just talking about animals in general.

Also, human species, as a general rule, at least throughout history, will reproduce with someone they love/live with..

True, that's another good point. I was just thinking of all animals as a whole, and when I think of the general way animals mate, I think of them running around, sniffing each others butts maybe, stopping to hump, and going on their merry way.
