Abstract

Through the text the author supports the idea that the family must be a community of people, because in today’s world where competition, discrimination and individualism predominate, the family appears as a place of caring and sharing, where its members are accepted and where they can express their feelings of affection; a natural space of the development of the human being.
From this point of view the author focuses on some important themes: marriage, love, sexuality, children and social justice, considering them to be fundamental to the construction
of the family, the propellant string of a human, solidary, just and altruistic society.
