Trigésimo Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario 25 de Octubre de 2015

When secrets become dangerous There is no better time of year to review the important family rules that help to keep all children safe. It takes just a few moments to review with your children what to do in an emergency, who the special and safe adults in their life are, and the importance of not keeping secrets. Some secrets, like a gift for a special occasion, can be fun and safe to keep. Secrets that hurt others, involve any kind of unsafe or inappropriate touching or anything that bothers a child – are secrets that are NOT safe to keep. Help your child understand the difference. For a copy of the VIRTUS® article “Back to School: Secrets,” email: jvienna@la-archdiocese.org. Cuando los secretos se vuelven peligrosos No hay ningún mejor momento durante el año para repasar las reglas familiares sobre la seguridad de los niños. Tome sólo unos pocos minutos para repasar con sus hijos qué hacer durante una emergencia, quiénes son los adultos especiales en su vida con quienes están seguros, y la importancia de no mantener secretos. Algunos secretos, como un regalo para una ocasión especial, pueden ser divertidos y seguros de mantener. Secretos que hacen daño a otros, que implica contacto físico inapropiado, o cualquier cosa que molesta a un niño, son secretos que NO son seguros de mantener. Ayuda a su hijo a entender la diferencia. Para una copia del artículo de VIRTUS® “Back to School: Secrets” (Regreso a la escuela: Secretos) envíe un correo electrónico a: jvienna@la-archdiocese.org.
