Parents and catechists and the retreat

We all agreed that parents needed to be more educated concerning Mass and especially needed to be encouraged to teach their children. Apparently this comes from the generation which were taught that Mass was a Happy Meal. When I go to a Jewish Temple I see much more reverence in dress and behavior by all. Rabbi Seligman you really have your work cut out for you. Perhaps some religious kiddie things could be made available before Mass like little Mass books. The kids need to re-evangelize the parents in the future.
Catechists are another problem. Their training is dismal. If  Catechist Nothing teaches nothing what do you get?
