Pope Francis Urges Combating School Bullying to Foster Peace, Not War

Credited from: INDIATIMES

Pope Francis warned that bullying in schools prepares students for war rather than peace in a recent address to Catholic educators at the Vatican.

Speaking to around 2,000 Italian teachers, educators, and parents, he urged the audience to pledge to combat bullying both at school and at home. The pontiff praised efforts made in educational institutions to promote peace, stating that “imagining peace” lays the groundwork for “a more just and fraternal world” through “every subject taught and through the creativity of children and young people.”

He emphasized, “But if, at school, you wage war among yourselves or engage in bullying, you are preparing for war, not for peace.” The pope also highlighted the need for enhanced dialogue within families, asserting that “it is dialogue that makes us grow.” For further details, read the full article on AP News or view it on India Times.
