The Quiet Catastrophe in American Childhood

For decades, American culture has told competing stories about divorce. One story says unhappy marriages poison children, so dissolution frees everyone to flourish. A second story says divorce harms children by fracturing the stability they need to grow. A third insists that genes and temperament dwarf family structure, making divorce a minor player in a child’s life. A new working paper from the National Bureau of Economic Research, Divorce, Family Arrangements, and Children’s Adult Outcomes, by economists Andrew C. Johnston, Maggie R. Jones, and Nolan G. Pope, settles much of the argument with data earlier researchers could only dream of.
The authors linked federal tax records with Census Bureau data to track more than five million American children born between 1988 and 1993. They followed these children into adulthood and watched what happened when their parents separated. The findings are sobering, and they deserve a wider hearing than a technical paper typically receives.

Chair of the Durham Catholic District School Board writes open letter: we respond

The Archdiocesan of Toronto newspaper The Catholic Register on April 30, 2026, posted an open letter written by Morgan Ste. Marie, chair of the Durham Catholic District School Board. A number of schools boards in Ontario have come under government supervision. Some form of governance reform is soon coming. The letter tries to defend the importance of Catholic trustees and what it would mean if the government decoded to get rid of them.
Here's Ste. Marie's message followed by our response:
After a few months of speculation about school board governance, a decision on the future of school boards is expected soon. Yet one critical question remains: What would happen if we diminished the role of elected school board trustees?
Loss of local involvement
Elected school trustees serve as vital links between the community and the education system. We communicate, respond and are accountable to parents, students, and local communities, ensuring that the values and needs of those we represent …

Ontario's CRRP does everything NOT to improve student learning

In an effort to push diversity, inclusion and equity education, most Ontario school boards, including Catholic boards, have also implemented Culturally Relevant and Responsive Pedagogy (CRRP). Equity and Inclusive Education Strategy was aggressively started in Ontario public schools back in 2009. Nearly 16 years later and millions of tax dollars and what have we got to show for it? We hope this post answers the question.
The boards and the Doug Ford government continue to argue today CRRP fosters a safe and positive learning environments by focusing on student identities, removing systemic barriers and developing appropriate curricula. CRRP and equity education are said to improve student academic achievement.
Boards implementing CRRP must identify harmful harmful behaviours. These are anti-Indigenous racism, anti-Black racism, antisemitism, Islamophobia, homophobia and transphobia. Administrators and teachers must address individual power imbalances both at the individual level and …

"His Love Enlightens"

Yesterday, the liturgy celebrated the memorial of St. Catherine of Siena, a Doctor of the Church. She was a Dominican and papal counsellor. We post here her insightful reflection of the day from the Magnificat. It's titled, "His Love Enlightens."
True and perfect love is so agreeable, so pleasant and sweet, that no bitterness can detract from its sweetness. Nor can bitterness disturb it. Even more, it is spiritually strengthening, because it brings us closer to our Creator. And in him we taste the sweetness of his love and are convinced in lively faith that whatever God gives and permits us is for our good and to make us holy. On what evidence? On the evidence of Christ’s blood, which lets us see by the light of faith—for if he had wanted anything less than our good, God would never have given us such a Redeemer as was the Word, his Son, and the Son would never have given his life as he did, with such blazing love, hammering out oursins on his own body!
He fills us with strength and …

Canadian doctor who ‘transitioned’ minors now says we should reconsider giving hormones to youth

According to a report from the National Post, Dr. Karine Katchadourian – one of the first doctors in Canada to provide hormones to trans-identifying youth – stated at a virtual lecture for the University of Alberta in February that she now believes the “majority of youth” should not be medicalized.
Khatchadourian is an assistant professor of pediatrics at the University of Ottawa as well as a pediatric endocrinologist who works at the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario. She began providing hormones to minors with gender dysphoria in 2014 and, according to the National Post, “some 250 to 300 gender-distressed children and teens have been under her care over the years.” According to the National Post’s summary of the lecture:
The field is in a highly consequential grey zone with contradictory findings at best, the Ottawa doctor told a virtual audience. The evidence doesn’t allow doctors to say with confidence whether puberty suppression has psychological benefits or not and …

17 babies were left to die after born-alive abortions in Alberta last year - LifeSite

Wed Apr 29, 2026 - 2:56 pm EDT
(
LifeSiteNews) — There is a particular kind of sentence that does not require embellishment. It does not need adjectives. It does not benefit from rhetorical inflation.
It simply needs to be stated plainly – and then be allowed to do its work:
Seventeen babies were born alive in Alberta following labor-induced late-term abortions in 2025 and left to die.
That’s it. That’s the sentence.
Seventeen. Seventeen babies. Seventeen times. In Alberta. In 2025.
Born alive and then?
No life-sustaining intervention. No automatic presumption in favor of care. No clear, system-wide requirement that birth triggers a clinical reset. Instead, within the system administered by Alberta Health Services, the response is shaped in advance: a non-interventional pathway, established before the child is even born, and carried through after the child is. This is not a failure of the system; it is how the system is designed to function.
If that sounds implausible, it is only …

Nova Scotia parents beware – your education minister says you have no rights over your children - LifeSite

(
LifeSiteNews) — Nova Scotia Education Minister Brendan Maguire launched into an angry tirade condemning parental rights in the provincial legislature this week, responding to an MLA who brought up concerns published by Juno News and the Citizens’ Alliance of Nova Scotia about provincial funding for sex change surgeries for minors and school policies on “social transitioning” without parental notification.
Last July, Juno News published exclusive documents revealing that Nova Scotia doctors had “greenlit five surgeries to create artificial vaginas for patients listed as under 19 years old.”
“I’ll be damned if I’m going to stand here and listen to someone say that the parents deserve rights over a child,” Maguire said angrily. “No, they don’t. They absolutely don’t.”

Congressman Brandon Gill Masterfully Exposes How Abortions Kill Babies - LifeNews.com

Rep. Brandon Gill, R-Texas, confronted a pro-abortion law professor during a House Judiciary Subcommittee hearing Tuesday, forcing her to confront the graphic reality of abortion procedures that tear unborn babies apart.
The hearing examined the Biden-Harris administration’s use of the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act.
American University Washington College of Law Professor Jessica Waters testified in defense of the law, arguing it protects access to “reproductive health services.”
Gill zeroed in on what actually happens in abortions.
He asked Waters directly, “You’re an advocate for abortion, for abortion policy. What’s your favorite type of abortion?”
He then described several common procedures in detail.

"Blessed the Man"

We post the art essay from the Magnificat for the April issue. It's about the work titled, "Blessed the Man." The artist is Anonymous and goes back to the 9th century. It's in Stuttgart, Germany. The reflection is written by Father Gabriel Porretta. He's a scholar of medieval Christianity and theology teacher at Providence College in Rhode Island.
How very appropriate is this old religious work of art with another war taking place in the Middle East.
Pilate's words, "Behold, the man!" (John 19:5) are cruel mockery as he displays the whipped and bloodied prisoner to the screaming crowd. The words mean: look at what you call a man. Look at how weak he is. How defenceless. How beaten down. And the words have menace: this is who you are in the hands of Roman justice, and any one of you could be next.
But the unknown artist of the early-9th-century Stuttgart Psalter noticed that, through the mockery and the menace of Pilate’s words, an echo of another voice can be heard: "Blessed the man"…

Mexican bishop urges the faihful: "defend your faith by knowing it better"

100 Years of the Cristero War in Mexico: Bishop Invites Catholics to Learn About the Faith in Order to Defend It. (Note: we translated this article from Spanish. Any mistakes are ours.)
During the commemoration of the centennial of the Cristero War in Mexico, the Bishop of Zacatecas, Monsignor Sigifredo Noriega Barceló, urged the faithful to deepen their understanding of the Catholic faith in order to know how to defend it today.
The Cristero War, also known as the Cristiada, was an armed conflict that erupted in 1926 after President Plutarco Elías Calles intensified the enforcement of anti-clerical articles contained in the 1917 Constitution.
This occurred through the so-called Calles Law, which imposed severe restrictions on religious life. In response, on July 31, 1926, the Mexican bishops suspended public worship throughout the country. Subsequently, the federal government responded with intensified persecution of Catholics.
According to the Mexican Episcopal Conference (CEM), 'more …

The worst PM in Canada's history now lectures the world on good governance

By far the worst PM in Canada's history is now lecturing the world on good governance. If it weren't real, this would be humorous. Yes, former PM Justin Trudeau recently spoke in Singapore claiming the old international ties are no longer useful for world trade. There is a need to change economic relationships because of the President of the United States Donald Trump.
So, Canada is now forced to economically get closer to Europe and China for trade. Trudeau never tells the audience that he was responsible for the cold shoulder Trump has given Canada. Trudeau and now PM Marc Carney have failed miserably to work effectively with Trump. They both have put their personal hurt feelings and serving the WEF ahead of Canada's security and economic prosperity. This is a mark of failed and incompetent political leadership.
Whatever feminist, blackface Trudeau charged to give the speech is too much. His inept ideas are not worth a penny. Yes, he talks lot, but in the end he says little of use.…

Be Catholic: Live your best life

Yes, live the Catholic life, and live your best life. What does it mean to be Catholic. It means being a Christian who belongs to the Catholic Church. It means accepting the teaching of Jesus and believing in his presence among us. It means loving those who belong to the Catholic community and using one's talents to contribute to making it better.
A Catholic believes what the Apostles' Creed teaches. That God the Father through His Son Jesus Christ born of the Virgin Mary has loved us so much to make us all brothers and sisters. It's Christ through His suffering and death on the cross who has won for us our salvation to eternal life. A Catholic is a person of faith, hope and charity. A Catholic prays and tries to live a moral and virtuous life.
A Catholic believes in the Holy Spirit. A Catholic welcomes all the gifts of the Holy Spirit: wisdom, understanding, counsel, fortitude, knowledge, piety and fear of God. It's through the Holy Spirit that a Catholic accepts Jesus into into …

'I acted to protect my child': Austrian mom fined for keeping son from explicit sex ed workshop - LifeSite

Thu Apr 23, 2026 - 7:08 am EDT
(
LifeSiteNews) — A mother in Austria has been fined for temporarily keeping her 10-year-old son out of school during a sexual education class.
Michaela Vamos-Karandish was fined 110 euros ($128) for keeping her young son out of school for four days in March 2025 after an external sex education workshop was to take place. The workshop’s content had not been disclosed to parents beforehand. In addition, numerous sex education books – the content of which some parents found questionable – were made available in the classroom for unsupervised use by students.
According to a report by ADF International, the materials included books such as Lina, the Explorer and My First Sex Education Book, which contain explicit depictions of sexual practices.
Some of the books also depicted modern views on gender and family, incompatible with nature and traditional teaching. The mother argued that these violated the principle of neutrality in public schools. In a book …

Does state secularism spell the end of the Catholic Church in Quebec?

Canada's Quebec was once a strong French Catholic province. Canada is founded on Christan roots. However, the Quiet Revolution going back to the 1960s to modernize and turn the province from a Catholic-centred society into a modern, secular and technocratic state has been largely done. The province took another step recently to complete the process.
On April 2, 2026,
Bill 9 An Act respecting the reinforcement of laicity became law in Quebec. One could argue the old Liberal government's slogan to be, "Maîtres chez nous," (Masters of our own house), from 1960-1966, has now been fully accomplished in education, healthcare, workplace and places of worship.
What is the new laicity law supposed to do? Reinforce secularism in public spaces and the workplace. Bill 9 bans the display of religious symbols and prohibits religious practice in all government institutions such as childcare centres, healthcare facilities and private schools.
"Religious practice" is defined as "any action, except the …

EU Court Blocks Hungary’s Restrictions on LGBT Content for Children

The European Union’s top court has ruled that Hungary’s 2021 child protection law violates EU law in a decision that appears driven more by ideology than by legal reasoning.
On Tuesday, April 21st, just days after Hungary’s national elections, the European Court of Justice (ECJ) delivered its judgment in a case brought by the European Commission, supported by 16 member states and the European Parliament.
The court
found that Hungary’s legislation—originally introduced to strengthen penalties against paedophilia but later amended to restrict the promotion of homosexuality and gender ideology to minors—violates EU rules on multiple fronts, including fundamental rights and internal market provisions.
The ECJ declared that the law infringes Article 2 of the Treaty on European Union, which enshrines the bloc’s core values such as human dignity, equality, and respect for minority rights. The court argued that Hungary’s measures were “contrary to the very identity of the Union” and rejected …

How feminism has changed Canada, not for the better

Real Women of Canadahas posted another timely article to better understand the current and divided state of Canada. It's titled, "
The Influence of Feminism in Canada." It serves to explain the economic and moral decline of Canada. And why over one trillion dollars in investments have left Canada during the last decade. It was former PM Just Trudeau who said that Canada was a post-nation state with no core values. He admired China. He also defined himself as a staunch, progressive, look-at-me male feminist. The lesson here to the rest of the world: don't be Canada.
We thank Real Women of Canada and post the article with permission.
Over the past several generations, Canada has greatly changed, in no small part, due to the increasing influence of feminism in many institutions and organizations.

The perhaps ironic tagline of the post from the Israeli governments official X account—“Pride rises at the lowest place on earth”—resonated with some respondents who made reference to the depravity of the event while observing its physical proximity to the general region where cities had been destroyed by God for these exact sins.
