| THANK YOU BISHOP VASA: LOVE, PARENTS Bishop Vasa's DVD series, Healthy Families:Safe Children uses experts in the fields of Psychology, Neurology, Education, Pediatrics, and Theology to assist parents to be the best and prime educators of their children. This series is the definitive answer and alternative response to the bishops demand for harmful safe environment programs operating in Catholic classrooms. Program can be obtained at www.securechild.org * Bishop Vasa writes: “The purpose of this program is to offer assistance to parents based on the science of child development to form healthy and secure relationships with their children. The secure attachment relationship assures that children will develop with empathy, self-control, and harmonious personalities. The most important protection children have against developing aggressive and violent behaviors, including sexual abuse, is the empathic and nurturing secure attachment to their parents beginning in the first year of life. In turn, this same relationship protects children from becoming victims of abuse.” The Most Reverend Robert F. Vasa |
