Why don't you quit whining and take the matter in hand? I must've read 4 of your posts so far that suggest you're shaking in your pathetic boots. The first source of catechesis and education ought to be the parents. The domestic church has to stand firm. If you don't trust the schools, homeschool.

I agree with you that WE, the parents, are the first source of catechesis. We are putting some trust in the Catholic schools here currently, as they have been through the sexual abuse wringer. If our trust is broken, we will follow the path you suggest. Perhaps I am whining - or perhaps I'm just sad at what our Church has become. But most whiners don't fight. I will.
