Chastity, Courtship, Love, Marriage, Parenting

It is imperative to give suitable and timely instruction to young people, above all in the heart of their own families, about the dignity of married love, its role and its exercise, so that, having learned the value of chastity, they will be able at a suitable age to engage in honorable courtship and enter upon a marriage of their own.
Catechism of the Catholic Church, Paragraph 1632
