I’ve stopped judging him – A family journey

I’ve stopped judging him – A family journey

Ten years on from the publication of *Amoris Laetitia*, the invitation is simple: to pause, to listen… and to allow ourselves to be challenged by real life.
And so this journey begins: each month a short passage from the Exhortation, each month a real-life story.
The voice of a family, a couple, a son or a daughter recounting how those words take shape in everyday life: amidst unexpected joys, parenting challenges, fragility and new beginnings.
Here you will find not just reflections, but lived experiences. Because Pope Francis reminds us that love is built day by day, in the folds of real life.
A journey to be read, but above all to be recognised. Because, after all, it speaks of us too.

Your children like olive shoots (Amoris Laetitia nos. 14–18)
When we stopped judging our children, something changed at home: more trust, more dialogue.
This experience reflects the heart of Amoris Laetitia’s message about children as a gift and the need to welcome and accompany them without immediate judgement.

Tenth Anniversary of the Exhortation Amoris Laetitia

Tenth Anniversary of the Exhortation Amoris Laetitia

Il 19 marzo 2016, Papa Francesco ha offerto alla Chiesa universale un luminoso messaggio di speranza riguardo all’amore coniugale e famigliare: l’Esortazione apostolica Amoris laetitia, frutto di tre anni di discernimento sinodale sostenuti dall’Anno Santo della Misericordia. In questo decimo anniversario, vogliamo rendere grazie al Signore per l’impulso dato allo studio e alla conversione pastorale della Chiesa e chiedergli il coraggio di proseguire il cammino, accogliendo sempre nuovamente il Vangelo, nella gioia di poterlo annunciare a tutti.

Emotional manipulation, emotional traps

Emotional manipulation, emotional traps

“Why do I always fall for it?”, Penelope asks angrily. It happens frequently in relationships with men who use manipulative communication. Of course, Penelope is not aware of manipulation, because when we are in a dysfunctional relationship, we hardly understand its nature. Even when we are cognitively aware of it, it is not said that we cannot “fall” for it emotionally. Because the heart gets the better of the head.
