Depends on how they were raised.

If they were just drilled as soldiers (if you want in-anime examples, think of Valkyria Chronicles' Selveria Bless, Gundam Wing's Hiro Yui, Gundam 00's Setsuna F. Seiyei to name just a few) he wouldn't have to care for them at all - beyond their value as pieces on his game-board - to raise them.

Besides I doubt he would personally raise them. More likely he'd grab them, drop them in front of someone else and tell that someone to raise them as good and strong soldiers.
