Justice is a virtue that enables a person to give each, beginning with God, what is due to Him. It calls us to act with fairness, honesty, and integrity in all our relationships. Practicing justice means respecting the rights of others, standing up for what is right, and ensuring that our actions contribute to the common good. It guides us to make decisions that are not only lawful but also morally right, fostering a sense of responsibility, equality, and harmony in our communities.
Parents can help nurture justice at home by:
Modeling fairness and honesty in everyday decisions.
Encouraging children to share, take turns, and respect others’ rights.
Discussing moral choices and the importance of doing what is right.
Teaching children to stand up for others and speak out against unfairness.
Praising actions that show responsibility, integrity, and respect for all.
