On the other hand, we are able to pray to them or offer tributes and they'll help us out from time to time in ways that a normal mortal wouldn't receive. But it doesn't change the fact that we wouldn't need the help in the first place if it weren't for them.

Like throwing a lab rat a piece of fruit. [An attempt to gain their children's trust and hope the demigods ignore the problems their parents force on them.]

You got it. I mean, they obviously like humans in some way or another, since many of the gods have plenty of children, and have done for millennia now. But I guess their fascination waxes and wanes with who they're in love with most at the time.

Attraction doesn't mean affection, and there are hundreds of species, even some sentient ones, where parents have no instinct to protect their offspring.
