Abstract

The person has two constitutive characteristics: singularity and capacity for relations. The development or genealogy of the human person has an originary environment or “locus” which is the family. The human family originates in the supreme act of freedom by which a man and a woman decide to give themselves to one another for life. In this created environment, each child comes into the world as “well-come”: this is the basis for an harmonic development of its freedom and capacity for love, or in other words, for his formation as a person.
