Judge Calatayud recalls the importance of training in values
The last celebration of Forum of Association of Executives and Executives of Aragón has had the presence of the judge Emilio Calatayud. The magistrate is one of the best-known figures in Spain, both in the field of Justice and in the field of family education. His juvenile sentences are well known, and instead of penalties, he has imposed community work services.
Of course, during his time in this forum, Calatayud has not missed the opportunity to remind parents of the importance of educate in values. The magistrate believes that at a time when new technologies present so many threats to minors, parents should assert their authority more in order to ensure the well-being of their children.
Educate in values
In his paper called Educate is the future, Calatayud bet on the school as a place where "children should be." In this sense, it emphasizes the importance of homework for the youngest children since children have to work because the effort is good when it comes to teaching youth. At this point he emphasizes that of course, there must also be a place for fun, although according to the magistrate it is always better to have fun in a park than with a video game console.
Calatayud also insisted on the need to recover the authority figure what parents should have. At this point, the magistrate stressed that parents should not be friends with their children. As for education in values, he also pointed out the trivialization of some dangerous behaviors in young people, such as alcohol consumption.
Beware of new technologies
The participation of Calatayud in this forum also served to highlight the danger who have new technologies for minors. The magistrate stressed that these are an instrument that can cause a child to be involved in a crime, both as a victim and as an author of it. That is why he reminds parents of the need to exercise your authority and review the content of their children's cell phones, a review without the minor noticing and focused on making sure everything is going well.
The parents also remember the decalogue that they should not continue, if they seek to get their children to end up being delinquents:
- Give the child everything he asks for.
- Avoid spiritual education until the child asks for it.
- Laugh when the child says swear words.
- Never scold the child.
- Collect what you throw on the floor and take care of your tasks.
- Let him read everything he wants.
- Argue violently in front of the child.
- Give him all the money he asks for.
- Satisfy all your wishes with alacrity.
- Be on their side whenever there is a conflict with teachers.
