That's exactly why my kids are being home schooled in CCD (using the Ignatius Press series + my own teaching of living life as a Catholic Christian) and not sent to the parish classes. When I finally took the time to read their parish CCD books, I realized that I was putting their souls in grave danger by keeping them in parish CCD.
And my kids are the only kids I know who look forward to attending Mass and don't complain about it at all.

This is an excellent example of lay Catholics taking their faith in their own hands and taking responsibility for the fate of their souls and their children's souls. I think we need more Catholics like you who recognize the "grave danger" and take action to do something about it.
Of course I can't avoid slipping in a "but" -- but isn't it true that the same people who you agree are putting your children's souls in danger with their CCD program, aren't they also the same people who are programming your liturgy?
