"どんな社会でも偶像が快楽や快適さや独立である中で、家庭生活にとって大きな危険は、人々が心を閉ざして自己中心的になることにあります。"
— 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.
