Summary/Abstract: According to Christian teaching I try to study here the two practical aspects related to pastoral care of the young: the approach to sexuality and the dilemma of the priest-physician. The pastoral preoccupation of the priest concerning children must be continued and intensified during adolescence and youth. I am firmly convinced that the vocation of priesthood highly encompasses the sphere of psychology. The psychological qualities of the priest, the ability to understand and identify human psychology, provide the efficiency of treatment starting from a temporal healing to eternity. Through the priest, the Church provides pastoral services, welcoming Christians in the life of Christ.
