"When they become parents, spouses receive from God the gift of a new responsibility. Their parental love is called to become for the children the visible sign of the very love of God, 'from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named.'" (Familiaris Consortio, 14) Al hacerse padres, los esposos reciben de Dios el don de una nueva responsabilidad. Su amor paterno está llamado a ser para los hijos el signo visible del mismo amor de Dios, «del que proviene toda paternidad en el cielo y en la tierra» (Familaris Consortio, 14)
