00:00:00Hello, good evening, we are Ricardo González and Laurelena Garza and we are very happy
00:00:19Because of this invitation, we are going to share with you a topic that we find very, very interesting.
00:00:26The issue is that I don't know how to talk to my teenage and young adult children; we have been married for 32 years.
00:00:36We have a daughter who is almost 30 years old and we have been part of the Living in Christ movement for 29 years.
00:00:46It is a community of Christian, Catholic married couples, where we have been very blessed to be able to persevere.
00:00:53These 29 years have been a great time, and we've learned so much within the movement, and above all, the Lord has also given us gifts.
00:01:01the opportunity to serve in different ministries within the same organization, and well, we're not specialists in
00:01:09This topic, however, is because we believe that the experience we have as parents, as spouses, and within the
00:01:17movement because we have been in training areas, which allows us to share some ideas with you
00:01:24And some very important tips on this rather delicate topic, right? What's going on? Let's get into the subject a little bit.
00:01:33Well, we see that there really is a problem; we have to recognize that our children are going to arrive
00:01:42We lived through that inevitable stage that is adolescence, we overcame it, right?
00:01:51Our parents also had to put up with us during our adolescence, and well, what happens?
00:02:00Why? What is this period? Well, it's a transition period between childhood and youth; you have to experience it, right?
00:02:09It's a transition that lasts around 5 to 5 and a half years, usually women start a little younger, right?
00:02:18Around age 11 they are already entering adolescence, boys around 12 or 13 years old, and well
00:02:26After 5 or 5 and a half years, it can be said that this stage of adolescence, this transition stage, has been overcome.
00:02:33And then we reach adolescence. What happens during this stage? Well, communication between children and parents.
00:02:42And the relationship between parents and children is very, very affected; there's a situation of frustration, right?
00:02:50The dad says, well, it's not possible, he doesn't understand me, he doesn't listen to me. What's wrong with that kid, right?
00:02:58who obeyed me, who was very docile, well, that's a completely different person now, isn't it?
00:03:05And what about parents who haven't reached this stage yet, when their children are still small, right?
00:03:11Those who are in childhood believe it will never happen to them, they say no, no, no, my child isn't like that, my child
00:03:17If he listens to me, if he tells me things, if he opens up to me, if there's that kind of feedback, if he obeys
00:03:25No, no, no, no, I want to... I have bad news for you, it's going to happen to everyone, right?
00:03:32There's no child who won't go through that transition; you stop being the superhero, right?
00:03:39You stop being that all-knowing dad, right? The one they put on a pedestal.
00:03:44My dad knows everything, and my mom is the prettiest and the kindest.
00:03:50And suddenly you collapse, right? And from being that superhero you become
00:03:55Well, the supervillain, right? Almost the enemy, right?
00:04:01You don't understand me, you don't get me, you never listen to me, you don't know what's going on
00:04:07Well, it's incredible, so what happens? That communication is seen within discussions, right?
00:04:17We can't have a dialogue, we can't talk, there are constant arguments
00:04:22This brings us sadness, it brings us pain, it brings us this distance, right?
00:04:29Hey, we were really good friends, right? I mean, I got along really well with my daughter.
00:04:34I was doing great with my son, and now it seems like I'm his worst enemy, right?
00:04:39And there's a lot of frustration, a lot of frustration, we feel very frustrated
00:04:45So, we recognize this problem, but what's going on? Why is this crisis happening among teenagers?
00:04:53Why does this situation arise, right? Why does this communication channel collapse?
00:04:59of parents with children at this stage, particularly?
00:05:02Well, looking a little bit at the anthropological aspect of adolescence
00:05:08It's a tremendous process of change.
00:05:13These are physical changes, psychological changes, emotional changes, behavioral changes
00:05:18Everything, everything starts to change in that little person, right?
00:05:22that transitions from childhood to adolescence
00:05:25Puberty is the gateway to adolescence, right?
00:05:30So there are two very important crises within adolescence
00:05:35The first crisis is the identity crisis
00:05:39no gender identity
00:05:41This is what's in fashion
00:05:43No, it's their own identity, right?
00:05:46Who am I? they say, right?
00:05:49Imagine that every day you look in the mirror and start to see yourself differently, right?
00:05:55Their bodies are changing, they are growing
00:05:58her voice is changing, her emotions
00:06:02So, it's an identity crisis, right?
00:06:05Everything starts to change for them.
00:06:07physically, socially, emotionally, intellectually
00:06:12So, well, this is quite groundbreaking, isn't it?
00:06:17So, it all falls apart here, right?
00:06:20And what happens to all those values, those criteria that they already had as children?
00:06:26Well, they're starting to question them, aren't they?
00:06:29It creates a lot of anxiety
00:06:31It's a very difficult time to go through, isn't it?
00:06:35So, when we have a teenage son
00:06:37We really must, therefore, have compassion on him
00:06:41It's a difficult time.
00:06:42Let's remember when we went through it
00:06:45This creates many insecurities
00:06:48They don't accept me, they don't love me as I am
00:06:52They can be beautiful, right?
00:06:55the little ones, the kids
00:06:56and they feel ugly
00:06:58There is a lot of insecurity.
00:07:01They feel like they're not accepted, right?
00:07:03There are many ambivalences
00:07:05They want different things.
00:07:07They don't even know what they want
00:07:09then, identity crisis
00:07:11the other very important crisis they are going through
00:07:14It is the crisis of self-affirmation
00:07:17Suddenly that me, right?
00:07:20that personality that we all have from birth
00:07:23this...
00:07:25and that develops in childhood
00:07:26It looks like it's hatched, right?
00:07:29So, now, really, who am I?
00:07:32TRUE?
00:07:33That's what my parents tell me
00:07:34But what do I think?
00:07:36What do I feel?
00:07:37that's why
00:07:39although sometimes logic
00:07:41tell them it's not okay
00:07:43They want to make their own decisions
00:07:45because they want to say
00:07:46Because I want to do it
00:07:48when I want to do it
00:07:49and the way I want to do it
00:07:51They want to start discovering
00:07:52Who is that "me," right?
00:07:55which has been growing
00:07:57And that it has reached this stage, right?
00:07:58where it begins to be defined
00:08:01then all the values
00:08:03all the teachings
00:08:04that you have given him since childhood
00:08:06Well, that's where they start to be questioned, right?
00:08:09because they want to have
00:08:10this process really of them
00:08:13make their own decisions
00:08:15And not because you taught them.
00:08:17but because they are already deciding to do it
00:08:20or not doing a certain thing, right?
00:08:22so well
00:08:23Well, it's a change.
00:08:25that we need to get to know him
00:08:27We have to accept it
00:08:29And we'll adapt as parents, right?
00:08:32see that they are changing
00:08:34and see how we're going to solve this
00:08:37These crises that will occur
00:08:39communication with teenage children
00:08:42Yeah
00:08:43And here comes the main question.
00:08:47How should I treat him?
00:08:50It turns out that
00:08:51as Laura says
00:08:52we are living through a process
00:08:54I don't know about 12 or 13 years old
00:08:57where my communication with my children
00:08:59It was different
00:09:01because, well, practically
00:09:03I was the king of the house, right?
00:09:04He adjusted
00:09:06to the rules
00:09:07to the recommendations
00:09:08to the ideas
00:09:09from the parents
00:09:10but there comes a time
00:09:12where
00:09:12he
00:09:13it begins to feel
00:09:15the king of the home
00:09:16so
00:09:17a question arises
00:09:19very important
00:09:20to define
00:09:21which one will it be
00:09:22our strategy
00:09:23look
00:09:24one of the mistakes
00:09:25that we commit
00:09:26when
00:09:27when we entered
00:09:28at this stage
00:09:29a stage
00:09:30extremely important
00:09:31in life
00:09:32because
00:09:32if you
00:09:34remember
00:09:35It's in adolescence
00:09:36where they are defined
00:09:38many things
00:09:38of our life
00:09:39many of our friends
00:09:41that maybe
00:09:43with which
00:09:43we begin
00:09:44when we got married
00:09:45They left high school
00:09:47or from high school
00:09:48so
00:09:49It is vital
00:09:50this stage
00:09:51and it is more vital
00:09:53in us
00:09:54know
00:09:54how to communicate
00:09:56with our children
00:09:56And here's the question.
00:09:58Do we need to communicate?
00:10:00as parents
00:10:01or we need to communicate
00:10:02As friends?
00:10:04Yeah?
00:10:05because many times
00:10:06one
00:10:06one considers
00:10:08that the best way
00:10:09to communicate
00:10:10with the children
00:10:11it is therefore
00:10:12from
00:10:12from a certain perspective
00:10:14more than friendship
00:10:15TRUE?
00:10:15we're buddies
00:10:16You're going to tell me
00:10:17I'm going to tell you
00:10:19and
00:10:19and
00:10:20and
00:10:20and there is nothing
00:10:21like friendship
00:10:22and
00:10:24And there's some truth to that.
00:10:25TRUE?
00:10:26certainly
00:10:26having a
00:10:28a
00:10:28a communication
00:10:30of friends
00:10:31not bad
00:10:32within a family
00:10:34But let us remember
00:10:36that we
00:10:36our main
00:10:40Their job is like that of parents
00:10:41Yeah?
00:10:42and often
00:10:43the decisions
00:10:45parental
00:10:45They are not entirely
00:10:47equals
00:10:49with a friend's
00:10:50us
00:10:51we as parents
00:10:52Well, we have
00:10:52some responsibilities
00:10:54that the friends
00:10:55They don't have
00:10:55TRUE?
00:10:56us
00:10:57entry
00:10:57Well, we have
00:10:58responsibility
00:10:59to educate them
00:11:00to keep them
00:11:01we have the responsibility
00:11:03to take care of them
00:11:04of your safety
00:11:05to educate them
00:11:07Yeah?
00:11:08things a friend
00:11:09well normally
00:11:10It won't have
00:11:11TRUE?
00:11:12so
00:11:12Yes, we can be friends.
00:11:14But first
00:11:15We must be parents
00:11:16They say
00:11:17a phrase
00:11:18which is better
00:11:19be a good father
00:11:20or a good father
00:11:21because, in the end
00:11:23the good father
00:11:24is the one who
00:11:25that gives to the son
00:11:26what he wants
00:11:27that treats it
00:11:27like a friend
00:11:28that treats it
00:11:29as
00:11:29as he wishes
00:11:31But ultimately
00:11:33that good father
00:11:34it becomes
00:11:35in something
00:11:36harmful
00:11:37for the son
00:11:37It's better to be
00:11:39a good father
00:11:40that a good father
00:11:41because the good father
00:11:43in the end
00:11:44what you are looking for
00:11:45It's the best
00:11:46for his son
00:11:47we who
00:11:48that we come
00:11:49of
00:11:49of a Christian life
00:11:52a life
00:11:52where Christ
00:11:54It's ours
00:11:54our axis
00:11:55because we know
00:11:56What are the responsibilities?
00:11:58from a father
00:11:59TRUE?
00:12:00and the primary responsibility
00:12:02is
00:12:02It is to bring them to God
00:12:04as friends
00:12:05well maybe
00:12:06a friend
00:12:07does not know
00:12:07still that
00:12:08so
00:12:09I do recommend it
00:12:11that your communication
00:12:12is based
00:12:13in being a good father
00:12:15and not a good father
00:12:17and how it should be
00:12:19communication
00:12:20with our children
00:12:21Well
00:12:21well
00:12:22Well, we see
00:12:22that
00:12:23that within
00:12:24of those
00:12:24five years
00:12:26six years
00:12:27that normally
00:12:27goes
00:12:28it will last
00:12:29adolescence
00:12:30because we must
00:12:31of being
00:12:32cunning
00:12:34wise men
00:12:35in order to be able to
00:12:36identify
00:12:37how to speak
00:12:38with our children
00:12:39depending
00:12:39of the situation
00:12:40that it be presented
00:12:42us
00:12:43we recognize
00:12:45And this is not
00:12:46properly
00:12:47a study
00:12:48this
00:12:49psychological
00:12:50not at all
00:12:51but we
00:12:51we recognize
00:12:52that
00:12:52that exist
00:12:53four ways
00:12:54in which
00:12:55us
00:12:56we would recommend
00:12:56from a personal perspective
00:12:57that we can
00:12:59communicate
00:12:59with our children
00:13:00OK
00:13:01at the moment
00:13:02that it be presented
00:13:03there are
00:13:04in these
00:13:05four ways
00:13:06in which
00:13:08in the end
00:13:09what we are looking for
00:13:10It is love
00:13:11us
00:13:12as
00:13:12as a father
00:13:13our
00:13:14major
00:13:15tool
00:13:16work
00:13:17It is love
00:13:18TRUE?
00:13:19We are Christians
00:13:20and we know
00:13:20that
00:13:20that from
00:13:21of love
00:13:22everything happens
00:13:23so
00:13:23within those
00:13:24this
00:13:25within love
00:13:26We recommend
00:13:27these four ways
00:13:28the way
00:13:29affective
00:13:30It's a way
00:13:31which is more
00:13:32based
00:13:33in feelings
00:13:34We'll get to them in a bit.
00:13:35Let's look at the details
00:13:36we also see
00:13:37the way
00:13:38effective
00:13:39which is already a way
00:13:40already more
00:13:41this
00:13:41more agree
00:13:43to one
00:13:44an education
00:13:45TRUE?
00:13:46an education
00:13:46where
00:13:47where the father
00:13:48take responsibility
00:13:50then comes
00:13:51an illustrative
00:13:52which is a
00:13:53a communication
00:13:55already more
00:13:56in a way
00:13:56teaching
00:13:57and later
00:13:59and the most
00:14:00common
00:14:00of all
00:14:00communications
00:14:01would be
00:14:02communication
00:14:03superficial
00:14:04TRUE?
00:14:05these four
00:14:06ways
00:14:07They are different
00:14:08but they are
00:14:08complementary
00:14:10It is important
00:14:11that there is
00:14:11of this
00:14:12of these four
00:14:14guys
00:14:14that exist
00:14:15within the
00:14:16communication
00:14:16parents
00:14:17and children
00:14:17teenagers
00:14:18because all
00:14:19are necessary
00:14:20the first
00:14:21of them
00:14:22Let's see
00:14:22the detail
00:14:23It is communication
00:14:24affective
00:14:25This communication
00:14:27well it is
00:14:27like the one from
00:14:28a communication
00:14:29with a friend
00:14:30It is based
00:14:31in empathy
00:14:32and we're not going
00:14:34to issue
00:14:34a trial
00:14:35how is
00:14:36This communication
00:14:37affective?
00:14:38first

00:14:40the teenager
00:14:41she decides
00:14:42the son
00:14:42He will decide
00:14:44when he wants to talk
00:14:45What does he want to talk to you about?
00:14:46and at the moment
00:14:48that he wants
00:14:49TRUE?
00:14:50and how much
00:14:51He wants to talk to you
00:14:52how much

00:14:56TRUE?
00:14:57When will it happen?
00:14:58To decide?
00:14:59normally
00:14:59He's going to do it
00:15:00at the moment
00:15:01more inopportune
00:15:02imagine
00:15:04I don't know

00:18:07tremendous knowledge
00:18:08TRUE?

00:18:17the second way
00:18:20communication

00:18:22effective
00:18:23this
00:18:24you as a father
00:18:26you decide
00:18:27When are you going to talk?
00:18:28with them
00:18:28You're going to give it to him
00:18:30an instruction
00:18:32an order
00:18:33It is a communication
00:18:34hierarchical
00:18:35objective
00:18:36clear
00:18:36overwhelming
00:18:38radical
00:18:39You're not going to do it
00:18:41whenever they want
00:18:42You're going to put
00:18:43the moment
00:18:43do not give prior notice
00:18:46because otherwise
00:18:46You're going to have a very bad time.
00:18:48TRUE?
00:18:48if you tell him
00:18:48sonny
00:18:49We'll talk tonight
00:18:50No
00:18:51It's going to hurt tonight.
00:18:52the head
00:18:53the belly
00:18:53They're going to have to prepare
00:18:55tasks
00:18:56study for two exams
00:18:58And they're going to tell you
00:18:58who cannot speak
00:18:59No
00:18:59little son, come here
00:19:00Sit down, my love
00:19:02Let's talk
00:19:03little girl, come here
00:19:04Let's talk
00:19:04This is how it is
00:19:06You can't be late.
00:19:07You can't do this
00:19:08What you did is wrong.
00:19:09and so
00:19:10It is an instruction
00:19:12What are they going to do?
00:19:15They're not going to like it
00:19:16normally
00:19:17They're going to do
00:19:18body language
00:19:20They're going to cross their arms
00:19:21They're going to raise their heads
00:19:22They're going to roll their eyes
00:19:23TRUE?
00:19:24and probably
00:19:25babble something
00:19:26TRUE?
00:19:26as well as
00:19:27Oh my mom
00:19:28I mean
00:19:28Oh my dad
00:19:29oh well
00:19:29You ignore it
00:19:31It seems like they're not looking at you
00:19:33listening
00:19:34if they are listening to you
00:19:35There won't be an answer
00:19:37then
00:19:38Be content if they listen to you
00:19:40TRUE?
00:19:40so
00:19:41This is a communication
00:19:42effective
00:19:43super important
00:19:44in adolescence
00:19:45because it is a
00:19:46an age
00:19:47a stage
00:19:47that we have to manage
00:19:49TRUE?
00:19:50We said it's a crisis
00:19:51if we leave them alone
00:19:53like weathervanes
00:19:53in this crisis
00:19:54They're leaving
00:19:55God knows where
00:19:56TRUE?
00:19:57so
00:19:57It is very important
00:19:59instruct
00:20:00give rules
00:20:01setting limits
00:20:02But it has to be done.
00:20:03in a way
00:20:04effective
00:20:05and then
00:20:06Communication continues
00:20:08illustrative
00:20:09This communication
00:20:10It's very important
00:20:12because it is here
00:20:14where you come to educate
00:20:15the detail
00:20:16It's that the guy
00:20:17of education
00:20:17that we use
00:20:18already with a teenager
00:20:20Well, that's very different.
00:20:21with a child
00:20:22Yeah?
00:20:23or with an adult
00:20:24because it is communication
00:20:26if we remember
00:20:28what Laura said
00:20:29of a little person
00:20:31that he is finding
00:20:32his self
00:20:33a little person
00:20:34that is beginning
00:20:35to realize
00:20:36that
00:20:37that has capabilities
00:20:38to discern
00:20:39which already has
00:20:41many elements
00:20:42for a start
00:20:42to
00:20:43to be defined
00:20:44a trial
00:20:45of his life
00:20:45so
00:20:46in this type
00:20:48communication
00:20:49we have
00:20:50to be very attentive
00:20:52Because at the end of the day
00:20:54And you won't let me lie.
00:20:56us
00:20:57for
00:20:58for
00:20:59accept something
00:21:00we have to
00:21:01first discern it
00:21:02I mean
00:21:03what I'm telling you
00:21:04right now
00:21:05Well, you have to analyze it.
00:21:06for
00:21:07to see if
00:21:08if really
00:21:09Do you agree?
00:21:10with what I'm sharing with you
00:21:11Well
00:21:11in the case of children
00:21:13It's very similar.
00:21:13The thing is, they
00:21:15They don't have them yet.
00:21:16many elements
00:21:17trial
00:21:18And they're already eager to begin.
00:21:19to make judgments
00:21:21That's why many times
00:21:22in adolescence
00:21:22are committed
00:21:23so many mistakes
00:21:25because
00:21:25your life experience
00:21:27It is still very poor
00:21:28your experience with trials
00:21:30is very poor
00:21:30because they come from an age
00:21:32where the parents
00:21:33We gave them almost everything.
00:21:35Let me explain
00:21:36so
00:21:36It is at this moment
00:21:38in this communication
00:21:39illustrative
00:21:40where does one begin to educate
00:21:41but based
00:21:43to life itself
00:21:44that is to say
00:21:45we here
00:21:47We have to start them
00:21:48to do
00:21:48questions
00:21:49from what we are experiencing
00:21:51as a family
00:21:52as a son
00:21:53I don't know
00:21:53maybe you
00:21:54He tells you
00:21:55to your son
00:21:56And you know that
00:21:56We went to a barbecue
00:21:59But you know that
00:21:59were
00:22:00around there
00:22:01passing marijuana
00:22:02some guys
00:22:03what are you doing?
00:22:05rather
00:22:06do that
00:22:07a drama
00:22:08You have to start
00:22:10Give it to him
00:22:11the elements
00:22:12so that he
00:22:13know how to discern
00:22:15if it's correct
00:22:16or it's not correct
00:22:17and begin to question
00:22:18And those friends
00:22:20who are
00:22:20my little one?
00:22:21And how did you see them?
00:22:23And what do you think?
00:22:23What's going to happen?
00:22:25And where do you think?
00:22:26that is coming
00:22:26that guy
00:22:27lifestyle?
00:22:29in such a way
00:22:29that they create
00:22:31that trial
00:22:33that discernment
00:22:34to know
00:22:34good and evil
00:22:35because it doesn't work here anymore
00:22:37is that the one who
00:22:38He takes drugs
00:22:38It's wrong.
00:22:39and he is a sinner
00:22:40That's not going to work
00:22:42because they have
00:22:43other elements
00:22:44with whom they communicate
00:22:46and that also
00:22:47They train them
00:22:48who are his friends
00:22:49TRUE?
00:22:49then you have
00:22:50to begin
00:22:51to use a language
00:22:52according to age
00:22:54that it is having
00:22:54Yeah?
00:22:55then I don't know
00:22:56I mean
00:22:56the same mass
00:22:58when you leave mass
00:22:59hear
00:22:59my son
00:23:00And what did you see?
00:23:01in the gospel?
00:23:02What did you feel?
00:23:03What did you see?
00:23:04what Jesus was doing
00:23:05that we can apply?
00:23:08and themselves
00:23:10they begin to think
00:23:11and they begin
00:23:11to arrive
00:23:12at the conclusion
00:23:13they begin
00:23:14to that search
00:23:14of the truth
00:23:15But one truth
00:23:16thought
00:23:16no, really
00:23:17an imposed truth
00:23:18and about that
00:23:19You can handle it
00:23:20in all areas
00:23:22in the areas
00:23:22study
00:23:23in the sexual areas
00:23:25in the areas
00:23:26I don't know
00:23:27For example
00:23:28right now the ideology
00:23:29gender
00:23:30It's very important
00:23:31that we
00:23:31let's make them see
00:23:32what fruits does it bear
00:23:34those kinds of ideologies
00:23:36TRUE?
00:23:36what fruits does it bear
00:23:37abortion
00:23:38what fruits does it bear
00:23:39all those things
00:23:40that are damaging
00:23:41so much
00:23:41to our society
00:23:43so that at the moment
00:23:44that he has
00:23:45what to take
00:23:46a discernment
00:23:47he already has
00:23:48the elements
00:23:48that you were
00:23:50carrying
00:23:50so that he would have them
00:23:52because from the outset
00:23:53He won't have them
00:23:55TRUE?
00:23:55then this communication
00:23:56It is extremely important
00:23:58in life
00:23:59of teenagers
00:24:01and finally
00:24:02communication is coming
00:24:03superficial
00:24:04where this communication
00:24:06It's the most normal
00:24:07is the
00:24:07the one that normally
00:24:09we handle
00:24:09in everyday life
00:24:11because
00:24:11It's not good.
00:24:13that all the time
00:24:14is being corrected
00:24:15It's not good.
00:24:16that all the time
00:24:17is being educated
00:24:18It's not good.
00:24:18that all the time
00:24:19is being listened to
00:24:20I mean
00:24:21we as parents
00:24:23We also need to
00:24:24understanding reality
00:24:26of our children
00:24:26and in this communication
00:24:28It is a communication
00:24:29more sociable
00:24:30more enjoyable
00:24:31more fun
00:24:32more than a friend
00:24:33because?
00:24:34because I
00:24:35identifying
00:24:36what are the things
00:24:37that my children
00:24:38they like
00:24:39which is what they
00:24:40enjoy
00:24:41I do everything
00:24:42what is on my side
00:24:43to propose to them
00:24:44an environment
00:24:45pleasant
00:24:47according to what
00:24:48They like it
00:24:49that if they like it
00:24:50the music
00:24:52that if they like
00:24:52the movies
00:24:53that if they like it
00:24:54I don't know
00:24:55what right now
00:24:56the kids
00:24:57are
00:24:57what they have fun with
00:24:59Well
00:25:00I have to get myself done
00:25:01empathetic
00:25:01to that reality
00:25:02although probably
00:25:04I don't

00:27:42to God that light
00:27:43to know
00:27:44at what point
00:27:45use them
00:27:46in the end
00:27:48another of the
00:27:49important parts
00:27:51of communication
00:27:52the thing is
00:27:53what we communicate
00:27:55It should always be
00:27:56the truth
00:27:56always
00:27:58always
00:27:59Why do I mean
00:28:00To this?
00:28:01look
00:28:01us
00:28:03the best inheritance
00:28:04that we can give
00:28:05to our children
00:28:06is that they know
00:28:07the truth
00:28:08TRUE?
00:28:09And well, we all know.
00:28:10who is the truth
00:28:11TRUE?
00:28:12Jesus is the truth
00:28:13And why does this happen?
00:28:16look
00:28:16normally
00:28:17if we do
00:28:18a bit
00:28:19from memory
00:28:19and we pursue
00:28:24the truth
00:28:24in our life
00:28:25We're leaving
00:28:26to give an account
00:28:26that we
00:28:27we have ways
00:28:28to think
00:28:29now
00:28:30very different
00:28:32to which we had
00:28:3310 years ago
00:28:34or to the ones we had
00:28:3515 years
00:28:36Let us remember
00:28:37when we were
00:28:37teenagers
00:28:38and we brought
00:28:39as well as that
00:28:39the hormone
00:28:40everything he gave
00:28:41What were we thinking?
00:28:43What did we think?
00:28:44of people
00:28:44of the opposite sex?
00:28:46What did we think?
00:28:47from our parents?
00:28:49Yeah?
00:28:50hey
00:28:50dated
00:28:52doesn't want to
00:28:53that I have fun
00:28:54we thought
00:28:56things
00:28:56that according
00:28:57we have gone
00:28:58maturing
00:28:59in our life
00:28:59we have left
00:29:01to think
00:29:01I can
00:29:03ensure
00:29:03that
00:29:03what you were thinking
00:29:05right now
00:29:06It's not the same
00:29:06what do you think
00:29:0710 years ago
00:29:08that your rules
00:29:09life
00:29:09what do you have
00:29:10right now
00:29:10with whom you live
00:29:11They are not the same
00:29:12from a while ago
00:29:13when you had
00:29:14I don't know
00:29:1511, 12 years old
00:29:16TRUE?
00:29:17we have been changing
00:29:18And we will continue
00:29:19changing
00:29:19That's why it's so difficult
00:29:21that our communication
00:29:23with our children
00:29:23It is based
00:29:25within ourselves
00:29:26That's a big mistake
00:29:28teaching
00:29:30to our children
00:29:30OK
00:29:31according to our criteria
00:29:32because our criteria
00:29:34they keep changing
00:29:35I'm telling you
00:29:35the form
00:29:35what were you thinking about
00:29:37from a party
00:29:38when you were 15 years old
00:29:39It's not the same
00:29:40of the 20
00:29:41and it's not the same
00:29:42of the 40
00:29:43TRUE?
00:29:44has changed
00:29:44Well
00:29:45us
00:29:46us
00:29:46Christians
00:29:47those of us who believe
00:29:49in Christ
00:29:49those of us who live
00:29:51in this great
00:29:51Catholic church
00:29:53those of us who are
00:29:54part of it
00:29:54we know
00:29:55that
00:29:56that Christ
00:29:57it's the truth
00:29:58and that the best
00:29:59way of educating
00:30:00to our children
00:30:01it is based
00:30:02to the truth
00:30:02And I tell you
00:30:04and if we
00:30:04we teach each other
00:30:05that
00:30:05we will be able to
00:30:07prepare
00:30:08now yes
00:30:08for a world
00:30:09who doesn't want
00:30:10the truth
00:30:11who wants
00:30:12the darkness
00:30:12but a world
00:30:13that lived
00:30:14in truth
00:30:15It's going to take me
00:30:16to eternal life
00:30:17so
00:30:18here
00:30:19the important thing
00:30:21the thing is
00:30:22all our truth
00:30:23be based
00:30:25in the word
00:30:27TRUE?
00:30:28in the church
00:30:28Yeah?
00:30:30so that we don't make a mistake
00:30:31because
00:30:32if I don't tell you
00:30:33but
00:30:33we're going to be
00:30:34experimenting
00:30:35with our children
00:30:36that truth
00:30:37then here
00:30:38It's radical
00:30:39us
00:30:41We have to teach them
00:30:42the truth
00:30:42of Christ
00:30:43although we
00:30:44as parents
00:30:45We are the kings
00:30:46of our home
00:30:47because it exists
00:30:48a king of kings
00:30:49a gentleman
00:30:50of gentlemen
00:30:50which is above
00:30:52of us
00:30:52his truth
00:30:53is above
00:30:55of mine
00:30:55because of his truth
00:30:56is eternal
00:30:57mine
00:30:57It's totally
00:30:58temporary
00:30:59then I must
00:31:00to guide my children
00:31:01towards the truth
00:31:02eternal
00:31:03And how can we do it?
00:31:05well then
00:31:06because many people
00:31:07says no
00:31:07Well, it's just that
00:31:08well to us
00:31:09They don't teach us
00:31:10to become parents
00:31:11TRUE?
00:31:11No
00:31:12Of course it teaches us
00:31:13the word teaches us
00:31:15Jesus himself
00:31:16It teaches us
00:31:17in the gospels
00:31:18how to
00:31:20treat our children
00:31:21how to
00:31:23treat people
00:31:24how to live
00:31:25OK
00:31:26to Christianity
00:31:27the detail
00:31:28the thing is
00:31:28probably
00:31:29we need to know
00:31:31more to Christ
00:31:31And you will say
00:31:33then Ricardo
00:31:34We have to be there for them
00:31:35teaching the Bible
00:31:36to our children
00:31:37No
00:31:37look
00:31:38as well as education
00:31:40is going to
00:31:42this
00:31:42growing
00:31:44as it goes
00:31:45growing older
00:31:46and its maturity
00:31:46teaching
00:31:48of the truth
00:31:49that we
00:31:50We are going to reveal to you
00:31:51of Christ
00:31:51He's going to go too
00:31:52changing over time
00:31:53It's not about
00:31:54of putting them
00:31:55to our children
00:31:55to a Bible course
00:31:57which would be very good
00:31:58But ultimately
00:32:00us
00:32:01we are the ones who
00:32:02we have to do
00:32:03we need to know
00:32:05to Christ
00:32:06we need to know
00:32:07What is the truth?
00:32:09and we
00:32:10pass it on to him
00:32:11There is an example
00:32:11that the Father puts
00:32:12on this
00:32:12which I like a lot
00:32:13where it says
00:32:15It's like
00:32:15as if you
00:32:17you ate a bean
00:32:18and you ate it raw
00:32:19You eat your bean
00:32:22raw
00:32:23You're not going to like it
00:32:24and ultimately
00:32:26the next day
00:32:27that raw bean
00:32:28It's going to come out
00:32:28exactly
00:32:29there was nothing
00:32:31of improvement
00:32:32in your life
00:32:33we as parents
00:32:35We are in charge
00:32:36to make that bean
00:32:37be succulent
00:32:39for our children
00:32:40and put his little tortilla chip on it
00:32:42your sauce
00:32:43in such a way
00:32:44that for whom
00:32:45the knowledge of Christ
00:32:46for them
00:32:47to be carried out
00:32:49in our life
00:32:50that is to say
00:32:52we became
00:32:53in that truth
00:32:55walking
00:32:57for them
00:32:57They know Christ
00:32:59through our works
00:33:01because we
00:33:01if we know him
00:33:03And if we love him
00:33:04And if we follow it
00:33:06That's why it's so important
00:33:07that
00:33:08that here at this moment
00:33:10us
00:33:10our testimony
00:33:12life
00:33:13becomes
00:33:14in the form
00:33:15to demonstrate to them
00:33:16What is the truth?
00:33:18and
00:33:19and
00:33:19And it's very important.
00:33:20because if we
00:33:21We do it like this
00:33:22a quick analysis
00:33:23of how it was
00:33:24the life of Jesus
00:33:25if you look closely
00:33:26Jesus spoke little.
00:33:28He didn't give many sermons
00:33:29Jesus acted
00:33:31and loved very much
00:33:32yes indeed
00:33:33It happens in all
00:33:34the parts
00:33:35of the New Testament
00:33:37TRUE?
00:33:37in the Bible
00:33:38in the Gospels
00:33:39Jesus
00:33:40the way in which
00:33:41He taught forgiveness
00:33:42was forgiving
00:33:44Jesus
00:33:45the way that
00:33:46who taught how to help
00:33:48was helping
00:33:49was healing
00:33:50was giving
00:33:51of food
00:33:52I mean
00:33:52Jesus taught
00:33:54with the facts
00:33:55so
00:33:55we when we carry
00:33:57that truth
00:33:57when communicating
00:33:59that Jesus
00:33:59We have it
00:34:01to begin
00:34:01to demonstrate
00:34:02with our own life
00:34:04Yeah?
00:34:05and well then
00:34:07going deeper
00:34:08in the word of God
00:34:09Let's see
00:34:11several examples
00:34:12TRUE?
00:34:13how
00:34:13in the Bible
00:34:14and how especially
00:34:15Jesus teaches us
00:34:17So how should we?
00:34:18to have this communication
00:34:19with our children
00:34:20as Ricardo says
00:34:21There's the instruction.
00:34:23TRUE?
00:34:24There's the school
00:34:25so that we can be
00:34:26those parents
00:34:27that our children
00:34:28They need
00:34:29Let's see
00:34:30in the quote from Matthew 22
00:34:32verses from 37
00:34:35to 38
00:34:36You shall love the Lord
00:34:38your God
00:34:39with all your heart
00:34:40with all your soul
00:34:41and with all your spirit
00:34:43This is the biggest one
00:34:45and the first commandment
00:34:48the second
00:34:49is similar
00:34:50to the first
00:34:50You shall love your neighbor
00:34:52as yourself
00:34:54You will love God
00:34:56above all things
00:34:57and to your neighbor
00:34:58as yourself
00:34:59so
00:35:00How should it be?
00:35:02based on our communication
00:35:03with our children?

00:39:32more violent
00:39:34than other times
00:39:34TRUE?
00:39:35this
00:39:36if we remember
00:39:38the merchants
00:39:38of the temple

00:39:40well, like
00:39:41Jesus acted
00:39:42in a way
00:39:43violent
00:39:43Did he love them?
00:39:44I loved them
00:39:45but because
00:39:46I loved them
00:39:47and wanted them to be saved
00:39:49and wanted them to respect
00:39:50and wanted that
00:39:51recognized
00:39:52to God
00:39:53He had to talk to them

00:40:02in the life of Jesus
00:40:03There weren't many.
00:40:04TRUE?
00:40:05normally
00:40:05the moments
00:40:06where we
00:40:07We have communication
00:40:09this
00:40:10a communication
00:40:11Hey
00:40:11Hey
00:40:12it is with our
00:40:14own testimony
00:40:15Saint Francis said

00:40:17go
00:40:17evangelize
00:40:18and if necessary
00:40:19speak
00:40:19I mean
00:40:20us
00:40:21in our
00:40:22constant living
00:40:23we can be
00:40:24those
00:40:24those communicators
00:40:26of the gospel
00:40:26towards our children
00:40:28and
00:40:28Why do I say that?
00:40:29Look
00:40:29it's simply
00:40:30follow the commandments
00:40:31but normally
00:40:32in our life
00:40:33ordinary
00:40:34We do many things
00:40:35where we communicate
00:40:37opposite
00:40:37to the truths
00:40:39of Christ
00:40:40how many times
00:40:41No
00:40:41He calls someone
00:40:42And tell him I'm not here.
00:40:43because you're teaching him
00:40:45to lie
00:40:46TRUE?
00:40:47or tell him to cooperate already
00:40:48either
00:40:50Tell your teacher
00:40:51that you are sick

00:40:53I mean
00:40:53a Christian
00:40:54cannot teach
00:40:55to their children
00:40:56to lie
00:40:57TRUE?
00:40:58are
00:40:58you are communicating
00:40:59evil
00:41:00TRUE?
00:41:01we have
00:41:01that communicate
00:41:02if we are going to communicate
00:41:03For example
00:41:04to our children
00:41:05chastity
00:41:06Well, we have
00:41:07to be chaste
00:41:08and they have
00:41:09what to see in us
00:41:10chastity
00:41:11that women
00:41:13dress modestly
00:41:14that men
00:41:16visit
00:41:16appropriately
00:41:18if you're watching
00:41:19a movie
00:41:20with your children
00:41:21and suddenly
00:41:22Images appear
00:41:23inappropriate
00:41:24at that moment
00:41:25They change them
00:41:26That's a
00:41:27It is a communication
00:41:29although it is not verbal
00:41:31that's what they're left with
00:41:32flatter
00:41:33in their children
00:41:33hey
00:41:33we cannot
00:41:35watch a movie
00:41:35that has that type
00:41:36of images
00:41:37and from a young age
00:41:38you cut it off
00:41:40we had
00:41:41that experience
00:41:42and to begin
00:41:43It's uncomfortable
00:41:43They don't understand
00:41:45But like I said
00:41:46as it goes on
00:41:47time
00:41:47and let them begin
00:41:49to identify
00:41:49the damage
00:41:51For example
00:41:51What does pornography do?
00:41:53But I'm telling you
00:41:53They have to arrive
00:41:55with all that testimony
00:41:56that we
00:41:57we're pushing each other
00:41:58to that conclusion
00:42:00of evil
00:42:00what are you doing
00:42:01not living
00:42:02in truth
00:42:03and about that
00:42:04I can tell you
00:42:05It is the service
00:42:07How can I prove it?
00:42:08that I am generous
00:42:09and that I help others
00:42:11by giving alms
00:42:12so you don't help me
00:42:14That's the way
00:42:15that I can
00:42:16communicate to my son
00:42:17what is the service like?
00:42:18But that's just everyday life.
00:42:21I mean
00:42:21all the time
00:42:22I have to be prepared
00:42:24to make that gospel
00:42:26that communicates to my son
00:42:28the truth of Christ
00:42:29Yeah
00:42:30another example
00:42:34that we have
00:42:35in the Bible

00:42:36not here
00:42:36of the person

00:42:46and compassionate

00:44:54that really
00:44:56There are things
00:44:56that they cannot
00:44:57TRUE
00:44:58They communicate
00:44:59one thing
00:44:59they think one thing
00:45:00and they feel another
00:45:01TRUE
00:45:02how many times
00:45:02they tell you
00:45:03This mom
00:45:04because already
00:45:05I am in high school
00:45:07already the parents
00:45:08They don't go to the matches
00:45:09Don't go to the game
00:45:10Don't go to the presentation
00:45:12of the dance
00:45:13because already
00:45:13high school students
00:45:14the parents
00:45:14they don't go
00:45:15they don't go
00:45:15only those in primary school
00:45:16TRUE
00:45:17And you're not going.
00:45:18And it turns out he goes out to the game
00:45:21goes out to the dance
00:45:22and the first thing he does
00:45:23It's to see if you went
00:45:25TRUE
00:45:25and you pick it up
00:45:27at the end

00:45:29how beautiful
00:45:30You didn't come
00:45:31and the parents
00:45:32of the others

00:45:33You know how I felt
00:45:35he was the only one
00:45:36that you didn't come
00:45:37And you tell him
00:45:38daughter
00:45:38But you told me
00:45:39that he didn't come
00:45:40I wanted to come
00:45:42No
00:45:42but
00:45:43It's clear you're not interested.
00:45:44TRUE
00:45:45so
00:45:45Well
00:45:46merciful
00:45:48patients
00:45:49They don't understand each other
00:45:50nor themselves
00:45:51TRUE
00:45:51so that way
00:45:52we have to read
00:45:53between the lines
00:45:54TRUE
00:45:55if what they're saying
00:45:56It is reasoned
00:45:57or is it emotional?
00:45:58He tells me not to go.
00:45:59But if you want me to go
00:46:01or how things are
00:46:02TRUE
00:46:02so well
00:46:03ask God
00:46:04that will enlighten us
00:46:05TRUE
00:46:06that we truly be
00:46:07empathetic
00:46:08that we may be
00:46:09assertive
00:46:10with what we do
00:46:11with what we transmit
00:46:12to our children
00:46:13Yeah
00:46:14And I say this lastly
00:46:16because already
00:46:17I think we
00:46:17we lengthened it a lot
00:46:18is
00:46:19there is a part
00:46:21what is
00:46:22a gift
00:46:23of those who
00:46:23I acknowledge
00:46:25as among the most
00:46:25wonderful
00:46:26that God has given us
00:46:27What is freedom?
00:46:29freedom
00:46:30of the fact
00:46:30to choose
00:46:31of the good
00:46:32probably
00:46:32Well, it's a gift.
00:46:34that God gives us
00:46:35The thing is,
00:46:37although
00:46:37our children
00:46:39They also receive
00:46:40that gift
00:46:40It is important
00:46:42that we
00:46:43let's know
00:46:43help them
00:46:45to find it
00:46:47because
00:46:47when they
00:46:48They are small
00:46:49They lack the elements
00:46:51in order to live
00:46:52a freedom
00:46:53in Christ
00:46:55a freedom
00:46:56in love
00:46:56normally
00:46:57freedom
00:46:58that they
00:46:59they are finding
00:47:00is the one of the world
00:47:01It is freedom
00:47:02rather
00:47:04It's debauchery.
00:47:05that we know
00:47:06how it ends
00:47:07I mean
00:47:07we know how
00:47:08like this freedom
00:47:10of the world
00:47:10that's all it does
00:47:11is
00:47:12enslave me
00:47:15TRUE
00:47:15It is not freedom
00:47:17but quite the opposite
00:47:19drugs
00:47:20and sex
00:47:22all that
00:47:22what the world
00:47:23this
00:47:24is inviting
00:47:26like something
00:47:26that sets you free
00:47:27we know that
00:47:28It's the opposite
00:47:29then we
00:47:30as parents
00:47:30We need to communicate
00:47:32freedom
00:47:33that really
00:47:34It's the one that's coming
00:47:36of God
00:47:36and it's the one that's coming
00:47:37of the truth
00:47:38and the one that concludes
00:47:39as with love
00:47:40Let me explain
00:47:41we as parents
00:47:42We have to go
00:47:43dosing
00:47:44because I tell them
00:47:46They lack the elements
00:47:47they still
00:47:47in adolescence
00:47:48in order to be able to
00:47:49to define oneself as free
00:47:51to reach the moment
00:47:52where
00:47:53they
00:47:54they will take
00:47:55the course
00:47:56that
00:47:57they decide
00:47:59TRUE
00:47:59and there
00:48:00we as parents
00:48:02because our communication
00:48:03Well, it will have to be.
00:48:04in another way
00:48:05but while
00:48:06that are
00:48:06in our home
00:48:07and while
00:48:07that are
00:48:08under our roof
00:48:10we have
00:48:11to educate them
00:48:12in freedom
00:48:13of love
00:48:14that freedom
00:48:15that only Christ gives
00:48:16and?
00:48:17It is freedom
00:48:19that makes you happy
00:48:20I don't know, Laura.
00:48:22look
00:48:23nothing else
00:48:23that's where we were missing
00:48:24an important point
00:48:26also
00:48:26to take into account
00:48:27within communication
00:48:29with the children
00:48:29It must be
00:48:30humble
00:48:31TRUE
00:48:32There is a date
00:48:33in Ephesians
00:48:34It is Ephesians 4
00:48:35verse 32
00:48:36that says
00:48:37on the contrary
00:48:38be mutually
00:48:39good and compassionate
00:48:41forgive one another
00:48:43to the others
00:48:43as God has
00:48:44forgiven in Christ
00:48:45how many times
00:48:47we have asked
00:48:49Forgive our children
00:48:50that one of

00:48:58or I'm your dad
00:48:59Well, no, right?
00:49:00I mean
00:49:00We must, with humility
00:49:03with simplicity
00:49:03recognize
00:49:04when we make mistakes
00:49:05knowing how to ask for forgiveness
00:49:07a teenage son
00:49:08that his dad asks him
00:49:09sorry
00:49:09sorry
00:49:10You know what, son?
00:49:11I made a mistake
00:49:11You were right.
00:49:12This was not the case
00:49:13or this
00:49:14I shouldn't have done it that way
00:49:15Forgive me, truly.
00:49:16because I didn't act
00:49:17in a way
00:49:18this
00:49:19reasonable
00:49:20but I let myself go
00:49:21because of my passion

00:49:22And I got angry
00:49:23and ask for forgiveness
00:49:24Well
00:49:24That's the best lesson.
00:49:26that you can give to the son
00:49:27TRUE
00:49:28so
00:49:28this
00:49:29Let's not overlook
00:49:31this humility
00:49:32this asking for forgiveness
00:49:33this

00:50:03in the area
00:50:03We have the experience
00:50:04of being parents

00:50:06the happy
00:50:07of having a daughter

00:50:23with our daughter
00:50:24TRUE
00:50:24in our family
00:50:25so well
00:50:27well
00:50:28Ah, very good.
00:50:31let's see
00:50:32come on
00:50:32Oh, I left it there
00:50:33this
00:50:37it's already
00:50:37very good
00:50:42Let's see
00:50:43Yeah
00:50:43If there is any doubt
00:50:44any concerns
00:50:45we're going to
00:50:46to see it
00:50:48perfect
00:50:56let's see
00:50:57to do
00:50:59when my children
00:51:00not even
00:51:01They direct me
00:51:02the word
00:51:02Oh dear
00:51:03It's difficult.
00:51:05the question
00:51:06What do you think?
00:51:08well
00:51:09entry
00:51:10well, to begin with
00:51:12the light of the spirit
00:51:13I mean
00:51:13the prayer
00:51:14many times
00:51:16That's right
00:51:17we see it
00:51:17as the last resort
00:51:18but
00:51:19It should be the first option
00:51:21I mean
00:51:21I think that
00:51:23well one
00:51:24a complicated question
00:51:25not far
00:51:27of reality
00:51:27because there are moments
00:51:29that to us
00:51:29They passed us
00:51:30also
00:51:31where the children
00:51:32simply no
00:51:33but there
00:51:34I think that
00:51:35in the light of the spirit
00:51:36identifying
00:51:38the possible
00:51:40reasons
00:51:40that
00:51:41that they carried
00:51:42towards that
00:51:43towards the
00:51:44cut off communication
00:51:46this
00:51:47Well, let's begin.
00:51:48to do a job
00:51:49of discernment
00:51:50probably
00:51:51study
00:51:52probably
00:51:53inclusive
00:51:54depending
00:51:56gravity
00:51:57even support
00:51:58TRUE
00:51:58because
00:51:59I'm telling you
00:52:00It's not far off.
00:52:01this scenario
00:52:02to what happens
00:52:04TRUE
00:52:04probably
00:52:05not with all the children
00:52:06not all children
00:52:07They are the same
00:52:08There are children
00:52:09where it gets complicated
00:52:10further
00:52:11which is
00:52:12communication
00:52:14in adolescence
00:52:15but if
00:52:16I think
00:52:17that
00:52:17we would have to see
00:52:19the reasons
00:52:21this
00:52:21the situations
00:52:23that
00:52:23that they carried
00:52:24that guy
00:52:25of behavior
00:52:26Now we have to see
00:52:28also
00:52:28this
00:52:29my opinion
00:52:30TRUE
00:52:30if this situation
00:52:31It's very particular.
00:52:33with you
00:52:33or also
00:52:34with your husband
00:52:35or with your partner
00:52:37TRUE
00:52:37I mean
00:52:37if with none
00:52:38of the two
00:52:39or if nothing else
00:52:39one is accented
00:52:40because suddenly
00:52:41this
00:52:42they bring there
00:52:43a situation
00:52:43of favoritism
00:52:44by the dad
00:52:45or favoritism
00:52:46by mom
00:52:47and with the other
00:52:47a total blockade
00:52:48Well
00:52:49but as long as there is
00:52:50a communication channel
00:52:51Well, we're getting there.
00:52:52TRUE
00:52:53in a little while
00:52:54I turn back
00:52:55in his friend
00:52:55TRUE
00:52:56but as long as communication continues
00:52:57with dad
00:52:58or with mom
00:52:59if with none
00:53:00of the two
00:53:00Well, we'll have to see.
00:53:01how are you
00:53:02with the teachers
00:53:04How are you with your friends?
00:53:05I mean
00:53:05We need to see a little bit
00:53:06plus the environment
00:53:07TRUE
00:53:07It's something very particular.
00:53:09right now with me
00:53:10or is it something
00:53:11which is widespread
00:53:12sometimes in adolescence
00:53:14Well, we need to ask for help.
00:53:15TRUE
00:53:15this
00:53:16It's not there
00:53:17I mean
00:53:18all the support
00:53:19from the word of God
00:53:20and all the support
00:53:21of the prayer
00:53:22and to let ourselves be guided
00:53:23through the gospel
00:53:24It's not there
00:53:25fought
00:53:26with professional help
00:53:28TRUE
00:53:28if we see that really
00:53:29It's already an attitude
00:53:30Well, no.
00:53:31I mean
00:53:31that is damaging it
00:53:32TRUE
00:53:33which is not
00:53:33which is not healthy
00:53:34well, ask for help
00:53:36TRUE
00:53:36this
00:53:37I don't know
00:53:38systemic psychology
00:53:39where he sees everything
00:53:40the operation
00:53:41of the family
00:53:42this
00:53:43It could be a recommendation
00:53:45TRUE
00:53:45But I do believe that
00:53:46see a little bit
00:53:46the environment
00:53:47Let's see if it's anything
00:53:48very personal
00:53:48or if it's something
00:53:49now more widespread
00:53:50and take action
00:53:51That's the point.
00:53:52another question
00:53:54says
00:53:54How do I talk to my son?
00:53:5614 years old
00:53:57that says
00:53:59What is homosexuality?
00:53:59well
00:54:03I think that
00:54:04first of all
00:54:04this
00:54:05here, like
00:54:07homosexuality
00:54:08it's like
00:54:09fashionable
00:54:10TRUE
00:54:10I mean
00:54:10the boys
00:54:11They want to feel
00:54:12this
00:54:12very fashionable
00:54:13very much that they are not
00:54:14retrograde
00:54:15like us
00:54:16They are open
00:54:17that are open
00:54:19this
00:54:19and well
00:54:20obviously
00:54:21if it's anything
00:54:22very delicate
00:54:22we have to
00:54:23address this situation
00:54:25oh well
00:54:26We really need to see it
00:54:27What does it refer to?
00:54:28I am homosexual
00:54:29TRUE
00:54:29I mean
00:54:30I like people
00:54:31of my same sex
00:54:33or I've already had an experience
00:54:35some approach
00:54:36this
00:54:37I don't know
00:54:37I kissed myself
00:54:38child or something
00:54:39TRUE
00:54:39suddenly
00:54:40around there
00:54:40there are friendships
00:54:41well then
00:54:41that confuse them
00:54:42this
00:54:44either
00:54:45or I don't accept myself
00:54:46as a man
00:54:47or what the situation is
00:54:49TRUE
00:54:49and so too
00:54:50address this situation
00:54:52TRUE
00:54:52this
00:54:53Let's not be alarmed
00:54:54this
00:54:55say
00:54:56we have
00:54:56the experience
00:54:57of people
00:54:58because it's close
00:55:00that at this stage
00:55:01so it had a
00:55:03a
00:55:03well, inclination
00:55:05TRUE
00:55:06this
00:55:06who declared
00:55:07themselves
00:55:08TRUE
00:55:08who were homosexuals
00:55:10say
00:55:10not even
00:55:11obviously they had
00:55:12privacy
00:55:13or anything
00:55:13But they were already saying
00:55:14who were homosexuals
00:55:16this
00:55:16and it kept happening
00:55:18time
00:55:18and it passed
00:55:19I mean
00:55:20really
00:55:20this
00:55:21affirmed his identity
00:55:23for the same reason
00:55:25what we say
00:55:25which is a crisis
00:55:26identity
00:55:27and right now
00:55:27society
00:55:28he tells them
00:55:28that homosexuality
00:55:29It's very well regarded.
00:55:31TRUE
00:55:31inclusive
00:55:32this
00:55:33I mean
00:55:34They show favoritism
00:55:36TRUE
00:55:36for being homosexual
00:55:37I mean
00:55:37They see you as better
00:55:38TRUE
00:55:38that if you have
00:55:39a heterosexual couple
00:55:40this
00:55:41So then they
00:55:42they get confused
00:55:43TRUE
00:55:43obviously
00:55:44they get confused
00:55:44It's a crisis
00:55:45identity
00:55:46But if you
00:55:47at home
00:55:48you give it to him
00:55:48a good image
00:55:50TRUE
00:55:50from you as a man
00:55:51you as a woman
00:55:52you as husbands
00:55:53the relationship they have
00:55:54among you
00:55:55this
00:55:56do not criticize
00:55:58do not despise
00:55:59to the people
00:55:59which has
00:56:01this type of situation
00:56:02TRUE
00:56:02because we know
00:56:03which also
00:56:04We must respect
00:56:05We must love
00:56:05but not
00:56:07Well, don't allow it.
00:56:08neither
00:56:09TRUE
00:56:09I mean
00:56:09to recognize that that goes
00:56:11against the plan
00:56:12of God
00:56:12God made us men
00:56:14He made us women
00:56:15and so the woman
00:56:17She has to love a man
00:56:18and it has to be complemented
00:56:19physically and emotionally
00:56:21and form a couple
00:56:22with someone
00:56:23of their other sex
00:56:25that is, of the opposite sex
00:56:26so
00:56:26this
00:56:28well
00:56:28delve
00:56:30delve deeper into the situation
00:56:31above all
00:56:32TRUE
00:56:32and ask for help
00:56:33when no longer
00:56:34So, here then
00:56:35I think that
00:56:36part of what we said
00:56:37It applies very well.
00:56:39in that questioning
00:56:40What can I tell you?
00:56:40which is also a reality
00:56:41because right now
00:56:43It's really cool
00:56:43that
00:56:44TRUE
00:56:44I mean
00:56:44Here are the details
00:56:46It is first of all
00:56:47love
00:56:47love above all
00:56:49I mean
00:56:50whatever I do
00:56:51whatever happens
00:56:52He must feel
00:56:54much loved
00:56:55But as Laura said
00:56:57in the end
00:56:58the truth
00:56:58it's the truth
00:56:59Let me explain
00:57:00so
00:57:00the truth
00:57:02Neither did we.
00:57:03we can hide it
00:57:05but
00:57:06we were talking
00:57:07of a communication
00:57:08where
00:57:09where I can go
00:57:11without that being the case
00:57:14so
00:57:14so direct
00:57:16I can go
00:57:17carrying it
00:57:17so that I understand
00:57:18how to live
00:57:20OK
00:57:20to that reality
00:57:21TRUE
00:57:22we know that those who
00:57:23They choose that reality.
00:57:25because, in the end
00:57:27They have very hard lives
00:57:28They have lives
00:57:29very difficult
00:57:30They should be loved
00:57:32They should be helped
00:57:33They should be integrated
00:57:35But ultimately
00:57:37the choice they had
00:57:39It was a choice
00:57:40this
00:57:41of not following God
00:57:43Let me explain
00:57:44so
00:57:44as such
00:57:45our responsibility
00:57:46as parents
00:57:47which is taking us
00:57:49to our children
00:57:50bye
00:57:51Well, it does have to have it.
00:57:52a
00:57:52a very important one
00:57:54attention
00:57:54these kinds of realities
00:57:56TRUE?
00:57:56and first let's leave
00:57:58to
00:57:59human
00:58:01TRUE?
00:58:01before the spiritual
00:58:02I mean
00:58:03OK
00:58:04You say you're gay
00:58:05Well
00:58:06How do you see yourself?
00:58:07in the future?
00:58:07I mean
00:58:08Do you want to have a family?
00:58:09Do you want to have children?
00:58:11either
00:58:11that
00:58:12What does this mean to you?
00:58:13Well
00:58:13No
00:58:14with a man
00:58:15or with someone
00:58:16of your same sex
00:58:17You're not going to make it
00:58:18TRUE?
00:58:18I mean
00:58:18never
00:58:19never
00:58:19TRUE?
00:58:20A man is required
00:58:21and a woman
00:58:21in order to have a child
00:58:22I mean
00:58:23they will be able to adopt
00:58:24but it is not
00:58:24That's not really natural.
00:58:26I mean
00:58:26It is not a natural family
00:58:27so
00:58:28well then
00:58:29as Ricardo says
00:58:30that they see
00:58:31the consequences
00:58:32TRUE?
00:58:32is really
00:58:33a path
00:58:33of a lot of frustration
00:58:35of much pain
00:58:35more than tell them
00:58:37It is a sin
00:58:38You're going to be out
00:58:40of the church
00:58:40well, tell them
00:58:41you're not really going to be
00:58:44completely happy
00:58:45I mean
00:58:46You can't be happy
00:58:47going against
00:58:48of what is your nature
00:58:49oh well
00:58:51also then
00:58:51ask sometimes
00:58:52professional help
00:58:54TRUE?
00:58:55Christian professional
00:58:56careful
00:58:57Yeah
00:58:57Yeah
00:58:57because that's really where
00:58:58if we leave
00:58:59with a psychologist
00:59:01with a therapist
00:59:03Yeah
00:59:03Maybe he'll say
00:59:04fulfill yourself
00:59:06as you wish
00:59:06TRUE?
00:59:07and if
00:59:08It gets more complicated.
00:59:09the situation
00:59:09another question
00:59:11says
00:59:11Is it a good idea to tell him
00:59:12to the children
00:59:13of the problems
00:59:14that happen to one
00:59:16As a father?
00:59:18Yeah
00:59:19but even
00:59:20certain level
00:59:21I mean
00:59:22They have to
00:59:24They need to understand
00:59:25that we
00:59:26We are human
00:59:27because according to
00:59:28I'm telling you
00:59:29They go
00:59:29starting to leave
00:59:30adolescence
00:59:31say
00:59:32entering adolescence
00:59:33They begin to realize
00:59:35of our miseries
00:59:36TRUE?
00:59:36I mean
00:59:37We are not those supermen
00:59:39that they thought
00:59:40who were like parents
00:59:41at eight years old
00:59:42And it's good.
00:59:44it's good
00:59:45that they
00:59:45go find
00:59:46us
00:59:47someone who
00:59:48is in the fight
00:59:49because it is precisely
00:59:51when they see you fight
00:59:53like them
00:59:54They're going to learn
00:59:55to fight
00:59:55And you're going to learn
00:59:57to fight
00:59:57You're going to teach them
00:59:59to fight
00:59:59to take out
01:00:00daily bread
01:00:01so as not to sin
01:00:03to love
01:00:04to your wife
01:00:05for
01:00:06for
01:00:07be a better person
01:00:09to do better
01:00:10question
01:00:10so
01:00:10I find it very valid
01:00:12that you go
01:00:14teaching your child
01:00:15and keep him informed
01:00:17your struggles
01:00:18TRUE?
01:00:18Obviously not all
01:00:19probably
01:00:22maturity
01:00:22of them
01:00:22They won't understand.
01:00:24but you
01:00:25You discern.
01:00:26which are those
01:00:27that
01:00:27They can leave him
01:00:29to your son
01:00:30items
01:00:32by when
01:00:33he touches her
01:00:33the fight
01:00:34one of the
01:00:34precisely
01:00:35of the
01:00:36issues
01:00:37who live
01:00:37the
01:00:38new generations
01:00:40They just don't know
01:00:41struggle
01:00:42They don't know how to fight.
01:00:43so
01:00:44It's good
01:00:47important
01:00:47that we
01:00:48We will show them
01:00:49how to fight
01:00:50for that
01:00:51also
01:00:52It is communication
01:00:54TRUE?
01:00:54here for example
01:00:55It's different.
01:00:57when they arrive
01:00:58to the youth
01:00:59in adolescence
01:01:00as Ricardo says
01:01:01I mean
01:01:02you can't open
01:01:02100%
01:01:03You can't either
01:01:04telling lies
01:01:05TRUE?
01:01:05I mean
01:01:06if they ask you
01:01:07so openly
01:01:08Hey Dad
01:01:09And a little bit
01:01:09Did you never smoke?
01:01:12because maybe
01:01:13you want to educate them
01:01:14and tell them not to smoke
01:01:15which is not good
01:01:16for your health
01:01:16And you smoked too.
01:01:18TRUE?
01:01:19I mean
01:01:19and you can't tell them
01:01:20No
01:01:20I never did
01:01:21well no
01:01:22Yes, son.
01:01:23Yes, I did.
01:01:24And I realized
01:01:25which was not good
01:01:25TRUE?
01:01:26I mean
01:01:26this
01:01:27Look at your grandpa
01:01:28died of cancer
01:01:29in the lung
01:01:30TRUE?
01:01:30Well, I realized
01:01:31which was not good
01:01:32I want to convey to you
01:01:33same to you
01:01:34Because I love you
01:01:34TRUE?
01:01:36this
01:01:36But if a moment comes
01:01:39in which we need to open up
01:01:40TRUE?
01:01:41And they have to see it too.
01:01:42well, for us
01:01:43It was difficult
01:01:43because then they feel
01:01:45who are very bad
01:01:46TRUE?
01:01:46in this crisis
01:01:47that are happening
01:01:48they say
01:01:49Oh dear
01:01:49I mean
01:01:49I'm winning.
01:01:51the world
01:01:51TRUE?
01:01:52this
01:01:53I remember
01:01:53my daughter
01:01:54a moment came
01:01:55in which he began to discover
01:01:56how difficult it was
01:01:58because finding men
01:01:59this
01:02:00chaste
01:02:01TRUE?
01:02:02men who followed
01:02:02the way of God
01:02:04this
01:02:04that they didn't watch pornography
01:02:06I don't know
01:02:06people that she
01:02:07Well, everything that has happened
01:02:08learning
01:02:10on our journey
01:02:11TRUE?
01:02:11as a family
01:02:12then he arrived
01:02:13at an age
01:02:15where it said
01:02:15Well, this can't be done
01:02:17TRUE?
01:02:17It's like, very suitable
01:02:18very idealistic
01:02:19and asked him openly
