Whoever sees in a dream that a number of children have been born to him, seeing them signifies worry, because children cannot be raised without enduring worries. And it is said:
Whoever sees that a small child has been born to him, it is an increase he will obtain in his worldly life, yet he will be grieved by it.
Whoever sees that he has gained a grown-up child, he will be in honor and strength; and in the rules of interpretation the child's mother takes precedence over his father. And it is said:
Whoever sees that he has a small child and then sees that the child has become a man, it signifies his strength.
