I really appreciated the info insert with the latest issue of CSF. In it Archbishop Cordileone says that now families “have been going for walks and bike rides together outside,” and “parents are more engaged in what their children are learning about and having conversations.” Families are even “eating together at the table.” Why weren’t families doing all these things before? What was stopping them? Laziness? Mindlessness? Fear? Basic responsibility lies with the parents. Looking at things from the outside, I think it might help a lot if parents didn’t so readily permit the current army of electronic gadgets and gizmos to co-opt life as a family.
