Pope Francis and His Google Hangout

"The wisdom of 'It takes a village to raise a child' has been lost as kids are either overprotected by permissive parents or neglected, Pope Francis said.

"'The educational partnership has been broken' as families, schools and society are 'no longer united together for the child,' he said Sept. 4 after holding his first Google Hangout -- a live video conversation -- across five continents with teenagers who belong to the international network of 'Scholas occurentes.' uniting students of all faiths and cultures."

A recent Catholic News Service article reported on the Pope's Google Hangout, including his advice, and on the beginnings of Scholas occurentes.
