What advice does Thomas Aquinas have for the modern person, especially the modern parent? Have you ever felt that something might be missing in modern parenting trends, like gentle parenting? In today's episode, Father Gregory Pine introduces us to an ancient practice that has shaped children for centuries: virtue ethics.
