When I went to a parochial school Mass attendance was mandatory. It was not an item for discussion, you attended every Sunday regardless! It was like a law, in fact I think it was a sin to miss Sunday Mass unless you were sick or had some very good reason. Did the RCC change the law? Can you skip Sunday Mass now? Just curious.

It was and is Church law that Catholics must attend Sunday Mass and on Holy Days of Obligation. This has not changed, but peoples attitudes towards obedience certainly have.
