I'm guessing you're asking why Jack and Kate were intent on getting Claire back to Aaron...and here's where I get to say.....

You'd have to be a parent to understand.

No, really. I can only imagine how awful it would be for Kate and Jack to pretend to be his parents when they knew Claire was still alive. Thinking back on those Oceanic 6 scenes, I think they were played very well. Parenting focuses your priorities so sharply, and the empathy they'd feel for Claire missing it would be immense.
