Reflection 198                       Previous reflections                   Resolution  

Based on the 1965 Vatican 2 document
Declaration on Christian Education - Nos. 6

Some of the main points in this article:

Parents have the primary and inalienable right and duty to educate their children

Parents must enjoy true liberty in their choice of schools

Government education money must be distributed in such a way
that parents are truly free to choose the schools they want for their children

Governments must make sure their education systems are as good as possible,
caring for the standard and welfare of teachers and students

Jesus, may governments care as much about education
as they do about winning elections
