Soccer Moms and Sunday Mass

The eminent Father Jay over at Young Fogeys has a good post about skewed priorities. He says in part....

A significant amount (but not all) of Catholic parents don't see the connection between their child(ren)'s religious education classes and Sunday Mass. Some think it is sufficient to send their child(ren) to the classes, but not attend Mass regularly. Religious education is a service they pay for and expect to be done for them but not by them (like getting the car tuned up). Can you imagine signing little Johnny or Judy up for soccer, taking them to the practices during the week, and then not taking them to the actual games?

He makes a great many good points in his piece which can be found here.
