  • Saint John Bosco received an incredible vision from above in which St. Dominic Savio appeared on a heavenly meadow and produced a letter with the names of some of the worst troublemakers at the Oratory School. The stench of sin emanating from the document was so foul that St. Dominic and the other deceased boys left before Don Bosco could open the envelope. The smell remained on his clothes even after he woke up. Armed with this knowledge, Don Bosco knew that it was time to clean house!

    I can appreciate the tough job Don Bosco had. A few years ago I worked in a daycare center, and it was horrible with the kids' behaviors. I remembered that I had worked in a daycare center in the '70s when I was in college, and it was a stress free job. I only had a problem with one of the kids there. Of course there are the social problems today: the internet, single-parent families, decline of religion, bad diet, both parents out of the home working, declining social morals, prescription drugs pushed on kids, and transsexual grooming agenda forced on kids to benefit big pharma, and an over-sexualized environment in general. These are all important. And with the woke agenda, today somebody like Don Bosco would be fired.
    But something missed in the analysis is the stress on kids today. And stress is cumulative. The kids where I worked would arrive at the daycare center starting at 6:30 a.m. Parents had to start dropping them off that early because the parents had to then make the commute to work. This employer had each daycare center located in the cafeterias of the schools. So classes didn't begin until 8 a.m., and the kids stayed in the cafeteria center until then. Then there was class from 8 to 3 or 3:30. But then most of the kids came back to the daycare center/cafeteria and wait until 6 pm, or sometimes later, to wait for parents to pick them up on the parent's commute home. This grueling routine amounted to an 11- or 12-hour day for most of the kids. Under these circumstances, the kids today are actually being raised by the other kids, that's who they spend most of their time with.
    Adults have a hard enough time dealing with stress. So you can imagine what it does to children.

    That story is kinda touching a fiber within me. Both of my older brothers wers Salesian students in their teens, and my parents got me into a Salesian school from which I was expelled after first grade due to missbehaviours, they were very strict and I was a very hyperactive boy with very bad grades and low performance in most subjects. From that school they sent me to psychological counseling were they tested me to have high IQ (never knew the number, and really don´t care to be honest), so I used to memorize whole books in a couple of days to pass some exams and afterwards getting bored and hyperactive during weeks at a time. Anyway, being expelled at 7 yo was hard for me, and got expelled later on from another private school. What´s funny is that I found my love for school way into studying economics, and even got a MSc on it.
    Now, I have a 2 yo son and I recognize the same patterns I used to have (learning everything in very short time leading to getting bored and anxious). I love my faith in Jesus, love the Catholic Church, admire the Saints and the lives they lived bringing so much good to others like Don Bosco, but even I wonder how would Don Bosco have dealt with me when I was that age, and what he would advise me to raise my son without him having to go through being expelled and labelled a troublemaker at such young age.

      I think it’s okay to be hyper active as a child as long as you don’t sin.
      Think you mistaken the boys had a lot of free time being they lived at school.
      These 2 boys not only put their souls in danger but pulled other boys into the grave sin as well.
      6 is the age of reasoning in the Catholic Church. These boys were probably 8? At Least
      But I feel ya story
      Except I was opposite couldn’t retain information and didn’t study 😅 ADD I think.
      Never diagnosed tho.

      Your dear son will probably be best off being educated at home, if at all possible! My son was the same - much too smart for "regular" school & easily bored. He was also a bit obsessive about certain subjects. So...homeschooling, it was, by the age of 5 or 6! When he got bored and restless with that day's lessons, I had him run, jump, play outdoors in the backyard - a lot, at first. When he got a bit older, I introduced him to hammers, old boards, and nails. 😅 Oh, and duct tape. Gracious! Then, on to dismantling old electronics, machines, motors. He had to write small reports on these activities, to help train (& slow down!) his brain to logical, orderly thought. I taught him how to research to find answers. I'm just a SAHM, whose hubby worked hard, but he helped, too. How we survived his childhood, I'm not sure. 😅 Our daughter gave us no trouble at all!

    St. John Bosco was kind but strict coz' he didn't want the boys to go to hell which reminds me of some brothers and priests in our Don Bosco Technical School, back in high school.
    God bless.
