I'm conflicted on this one. The parents need to be called out on their disregard of the Third Commandment, but at the same time the kids need to be instructed no matter how slack their folks are. It's a tough call.

It is, but you know, in the end, I support it. I call these types "Sacrament Catholics." We have some cousins who recently had a baby and are rushing to get the Baptism done. They had to change the date to the following month with the Church because it didn't coincide with the date with the restaurant for the party afterward. It became quite the dilemma and the mother was rushing and scrambling to make sure all dates were going to work. Why all of this work and stress? The couple haven't set foot in a Church since the day they were married three years ago.

"Sacramental Catholics" that's a new one and very appropriate. Seems that's what many are. It's a shame.

and these parents in Staten island can't spend ONE hour out of 168 in a week is pretty pathetic.
