Don Vecchione says young people need spiritual parents amid student protests

Don Vecchione, the chaplain of Sapienza University in Rome, said young people need spiritual mothers and fathers to address the unrest seen in recent student protests. These protests included clashes in Rome and Milan that resulted in damaged storefronts and attacks on shops.

The chaplain noted that the role of the Church is to encourage desire while dismantling fierce individualism and helping young people cultivate a sense of community.
