~ REFLECTION ~
Today we celebrate Father’s Day, honoring our fathers, grandfathers, godfathers, and all those who have acted as fathers in our lives. How fortunate are we if we had or have a father who is like the majestic cedar described in the first reading, providing comfort and protection for all those in its care. Whatever our own circumstances, we can look to God, our Almighty Father, as the ideal of a fostering, loving, forgiving parent.
~ REFLEXION ~
Hoy celebramos el Día de los Padres, para honrar a nuestros padres, abuelos, padrinos y todos aquellos que han actuado como padres para nosotros. Qué afortunados somos si tenemos o hemos tenido un padre que es como el cedro magnífico descrito en la primera lectura, que brinda solaz y protección a todos los que se anidan bajo su sombra. Cualquiera que fuese tu circunstancia, todos podemos ver a Dios, nuestro Padre todopoderoso, como el padre ideal, amoroso y dispuesto a perdonar.
Did You Know?
As parents/caregivers, we teach children to say “please” and “thank you,” to play nicely, and to respect other adults. It is also key to stress the importance of safety, and let children know that it is okay to be impolite if they feel threatened or scared. Children should know that it’s okay to say “NO” if someone is asking them to do something they don’t feel comfortable doing, and that setting boundaries by saying things like -- “Don’t touch me there,” or “I don’t like that” -- are not rude, but in fact necessary for their safety.

Sabia Usted?
Como padres de familia y cuidadores de niños, nosotros les enseñamos a los niños a decir “por favor” y “gracias”, a jugar con amabilidad, y a respetar a los adultos. También es muy importante recalcar la importancia de la seguridad, y dejar que los niños sepan que está bien ser descortés si ellos se sientes amenazados o temerosos. Los niños deben saber que está bien decir “NO” si alguien les está pidiendo hacer algo con lo cual ellos no se sienten cómodos, y que poner fronteras diciendo cosas como, “No me toque allí”, o “Eso no me gusta”, no es malcriadeza, sino que es necesario para la seguridad del niño.
