Ephesians 5:25

"Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church and gave himself for it;"


So that's the way the man should love his wife, as the whole theme of these verses have been centered on love. Well you take that same concept right on into chapter 6, because there were no chapter headings when Paul wrote. He didn't put chapter 6 and then break it down into verses, but as he was writing and the Holy Spirit is guiding his thinking, he now moves on into another area, but it's still involved in the home. So we move from the husband and wife relationship right on down into the family relationship, and that is between parents and children.
