Pope Leo XIV sounded the alarm about
loneliness among young people on Thursday in audience with the
Institute of the Brothers of the Christian Schools congregation.
The American pontiff, who was elected the new leader of the
Catholic Church a week ago, focused on the "obstacles to
address" in relationships with young people and their education.
"Let us think of the isolation caused by rampant relational
models increasingly marked by superficiality, individualism and
emotional instability; of the spread of patterns of thought
weakened by relativism; of the prevalence of rhythms and
lifestyles in which there is not enough room for listening,
reflection and dialogue, at school, in the family and, at times,
among the peers themselves, with the resulting loneliness," Pope
Leo said.
