"El gran peligro para la vida familiar, en medio de cualquier sociedad cuyos ídolos son el placer, la comodidad y la independencia, radica en el hecho de que las personas cierren sus corazones y se vuelvan egoístas."
— Pope John Paul II
Simplified Meaning:
When a society values fun, ease, and doing things on your own above everything else, there's a big risk for family life. People might start focusing too much on their own happiness and needs, forgetting about the others around them. For example, if parents are more interested in their own hobbies or work, they might not spend enough time with their kids. This can make family members feel alone and unloved, breaking the close bond that families should have. To avoid this, it's important for everyone in a family to care about each other’s feelings and needs, and not just think about themselves. If families show love and support for each other, they stay united and strong, even in a world that encourages people to be self-centered.
