POPE FRANCIS: Sometimes marriage break-ups are inevitable

Pope Francis on Wednesday acknowledged that sometimes it is impossible for spouses to stay together. “It is true...that there are cases when separations are inevitable. Sometimes they can even become morally necessary,” the pontiff said during his weekly audience in Saint Peter’s Square.

He said he was referring to cases of domestic violence and exploitation (manipulations of all kinds).

“Around us we find several families in so-called irregular-I don’t like this word – situations, and we pose ourselves many questions. 

“How can we help them? How can we support them? How can we support them so that children do not become hostages of their father or mother?,” the Pope said.
