“What can you ever really know of other people’s souls—of their temptations, their opportunities, their struggles? One soul in the whole creation you do know: and it is the only one whose fate is placed in your hands.” CS Lewis
Outside of the context of a family or “best friend” relationship, we need to be very careful in offering constructive criticism. I find it much more effective to inspire them with the strong example of a virtuous life.
God bless,
