I hope this Synod succeeds. And I hope the media reporting on it doesn't descend into clickbait and theological/political tribalism. I also hope that the reporting and commentary on it doesn't have such a Western bias as well, because there are more issues the Catholic Church and Churches have to deal with than contentious culture war debates in the West. 

There's a massive refugee crisis in Syria and South Sudan, there is a migrant crisis from North Africa. There is a massive ecological crisis affecting the planet. And all of these as Francis pointed out wisely in Amoris Laetitia affects families, particularly families in the developing world and they also affect the younger generation in the developing world as well. So accompanying young people not just culturally but spiritually to face those challenges as well across the globe is important.
