Consejo Espiritual
Padres creyentes con hijos incrédulos, ¿quién
tiene la culpa?
El trabajo diario, las obligaciones en el hogar y la
preocupación por solventar las necesidades
materiales, parecen no dejar tiempo a los padres de
familia para contagiar a sus hijos el amor a Dios. Así
es, las nuevas generaciones están creciendo sin fe
porque en sus hogares nadie se preocupa por
hablarles de Dios.En la sociedad actual, donde los
niños y jóvenes están expuestos a tentaciones
sexuales, violencia escolar, bebidas alcohólicas,
drogas y muchas otras influencias negativas, no
cuentan con la fuerza de los valores morales
y cristianos para defenderse, considera el P.
Eduardo Mercado Guzmán, responsable de la
Comisión de Catequesis de la Arquidiócesis de
México.Y es que se ha ido perdiendo el sentido de la
familia como “escuela de fe”; en muchos hogares
han desaparecido las costumbres cristianas,
no se reúnen para hacer oración, ir a Misa o
rezar el Santo Rosario, y las imágenes
religiosas ya no tienen un lugar importante
en casa.“La educación en la fe ya no es parte del
mundo de hoy”, asegura el P. Mercado Guzmán,
porque la preocupación de muchos padres de
familia se limita a bautizar a sus hijos, y se olvidan
que en ese momento –y también cuando
contrajeron Matrimonio–, recibieron la gracia y la
obligación de darles una educación cristiana a sus
hijos para que, guardando los mandamientos
divinos, amen a Dios y a su prójimo, como Cristo
nos enseñó”.Aunado a ello, en muchas familias
se le da más importancia al bienestar y
confort material, dejando en último plano lo
espiritual, a lo que se suma la influencia de los
medios de comunicación y las nuevas tecnologías
que, en un sentido negativo, pueden ser un
distractor para los niños y jóvenes.Misión de la
familia cristianaLa Iglesia Católica habla sobre la
importancia de que los hijos aprendan desde sus
primeros años a conocer la fe recibida en el
Bautismo. El responsable de la Comisión de
Catequesis explica que “el testimonio de vida
cristiana, ofrecido por los padres en el seno
de la familia, llega a los niños envuelto en el
cariño y el respeto”, y que esta primera
experiencia cristiana deja en ellos “una huella
decisiva que dura toda la vida”, por lo que el
despertar religioso infantil en el ambiente familiar
tiene un carácter insustituible.La declaración
Gravissimum Educationis del Concilio Vaticano II
sobre la educación cristiana, señala que el “deber de
la educación familiar es de tanta trascendencia que,
cuando falta, difícilmente puede suplirse”, y que es
obligación de los padres “formar un
ambiente familiar animado por el amor, por
la piedad hacia Dios y hacia los hombres,
que favorezca la educación íntegra tanto
personal como social de los hijos”.Por su
parte, el Papa Juan Pablo II en su exhortación
apostólica Familiaris Consortio escribió que “aun en
medio de las dificultades –hoy a menudo
agravadas– de la acción educativa, los padres deben
formar a los hijos con confianza y valentía en los
valores esenciales de la vida humana. Los hijos
deben crecer en una justa libertad ante los
bienes materiales, adoptando un estilo de
vida sencillo y austero, convencidos de que
‘el hombre vale más por lo que es que por lo
que tiene’”.Sobre el tema, el Papa Emérito
Benedicto XVI explicaba que “esa natural y
sobrenatural iniciación a la vida de piedad, hecha
en el calor del hogar, da muy buenos resultados. El
niño aprende a colocar al Señor en la línea de los
primeros y más fundamentales afectos; aprende a
tratar a Dios como Padre y a la Virgen como Madre,
y aprende a rezar, siguiendo el ejemplo de sus
padres”.Finalmente, el Papa Francisco, en la
encíclica Lumen Fidei también recuerda que “en la
familia, la fe está presente en todas las etapas de la
vida, comenzando por la infancia: los niños
aprenden a fiarse del amor de sus padres. Por eso es
importante que los padres cultiven prácticas
comunes de fe en la familia, que acompañen el
crecimiento en la fe de los hijos”.En la audiencia
general de la semana pasada, el Papa Francisco
también dedicó parte de su reflexión a la enseñanza
de las madres y los padres a sus niños, y dijo que es
muy bello cuando los pequeños aprenden a
mandarle un beso a Jesús o a la Virgen.En este
sentido, el Santo padre también lamentó que en
algunos lugares haya niños que no saben hacer la
señal de la cruz: “Una cosa que tengo en el
corazón, que he visto en las ciudades: ¡hay
niños que no han aprendido a hacer la señal
de la Cruz! Tú, mamá, papá, enseña al niño a
rezar, a hacer la señal de la Cruz, esta es una
tarea bella de las mamás y de los papás”,
dijo.Escuela de virtudes El P. Mercado Guzmán,
explica que los padres evangelizan a sus hijos con el
ejemplo, haciéndoles sentir que Dios es parte de la
familia, que siempre se puede contar con Él porque
Su amor es incondicional.“Esto –dijo– va a
impactar en su futuro, porque una educación
cristiana les da herramientas para enfrentar
diversas situaciones de vida”, ya que crecerán con
valores como la austeridad en la posesión de las
cosas, amor y servicio, sociabilidad, sexualidad sana
y castidad.Existen recursos como libros, videos,
portales de internet católicos y, por supuesto, el
apoyo de los materiales que ofrece la Iglesia, donde
los padres pueden encontrar ideas para educar
mejor a sus hijos en la fe.Con la ayuda del director
de la Comisión de Catequesis, el periódico Desde
la fe te ofrece algunos consejos para que tus
hijos aprendan a amar a Dios:1. Enseñarles a
orar durante el día, a tener diálogos con Dios para
pedir su consejo y su guía, y darle gracias por todo
lo que Él nos da.2. Dar gracias a Dios por los
alimentos, tener imágenes religiosas en casa,
llevarlos a la Basílica de Guadalupe, enseñarles el
significado de las fiestas litúrgicas y pedir la
protección del Ángel Custodio.3. Leer con ellos la
Biblia o las hojitas de la Misa. Dejar que los niños
digan lo que entendieron y cómo le van a responder
a Dios.4. Asistir a Misa en familia y enseñarle al
niño el significado de los momentos más
importantes de la Liturgia, de los ornamentos y
elementos del altar.5. Prepararlos para que
relacionen su vida cotidiana con Dios. Por ejemplo,
motivándolos para que ofrezcan a Dios las clases y
tareas.6.
Prepararlos
para
recibir
los
Sacramentos.7. Recordar que un elemento esencial
es el testimonio vivo de los padres, que son los
primeros mensajeros del Evangelio ante los hijos.
