"Parents are the primary educators in
the faith ... Indeed in the same way as the Church, the family ‘is a
place in which the Gospel is transmitted and from which it
extends.’"
"It is for
this reason that the Christian community must
give very special attention to parents. By means of personal
contact, meetings, courses and also adult catechesis directed toward
parents, the Christian community must help them assume their
responsibility—which is particularly delicate today—of educating their
children in the faith.”
