Well then I guess it is best in most all cases to home school. I find it strange when stay at home Traditional Catholic mothers do not teach at home. What on earth do they do all day long? It has been a struggle but I am so very glad that I teach my children. That is after all the mother's job.

I'd be tempted to wonder the same thing -- I'd hope they have some altruistic, selfless pursuit they're involved in.

And if they're sending kids to public school they'd better have a VERY good reason for throwing away their children's souls. Harsh, but in most cases that's what it is.

They'll try to justify it, but what they REALLY WANT is the convenience/pleasure of having children gone a bunch of the day, so they can relax and pursue their own interests. They are choosing rest and relaxation over their children's souls -- souls that are supposed to be their prime concern in this life. The souls of one's children are the main subject for parents at the particular judgment.

Apparently out there in the world there's a whole category of women who are "stay at home housewives" who don't have kids or a job -- usually because the husband makes plenty of money. The old "meal ticket husband" where the poor slob works his butt off. Apparently these "desperate housewives" are a greedy sort, talking to each other and comparing notes on how big everyone's diamond is.

The man is gone so much trying to earn money for her next diamond ring upgrade, then she commits adultery with another man and sues her poor husband for divorce. Then he has to lose 1/2 his possessions, etc. The world really has it out for men. For the man, it's lose-lose-lose-lose.

So the world has even worse problems than we trad. Catholics do!

I read about this type in a "don't get married, guys!" docuмent someone posted. It was full of anecdotes. Very interesting -- it made me glad I was in the traditional Catholic world!

I find it odd that the enemies of the Sede world would not blow it sky high if there was some sort of abuse or corruption taking place over there. Of course if all we get are veiled comments then other families are put at risk. Atleast Eamon came right out and said what was happening. He did not de-rail every thread with innuendo.

Wow.

Wow what? He did tell the truth of what was happening. And,he did not pepper every thread on school or parish life with little comments. And,in doing it his way he warned others to beware.

FWIW:

It was not my impression that Elizabeth had any intention to put down poor people.

'White trash' is an expression that has been around for a long time, and has been used by a variety of people in multiple contexts.

The "hurt" ones know this also. As if Cathinfo has ever been "politically correct"!

It was an opportunity to attack me personally, and impugn my motives and intentions for posting at Cathinfo.

If it was such a scandal, one of them would have caused a drama over the last person I saw use the term.

And why did you bring Eamon into this thread?

throwing away their children's souls

Wow. This is an amazing comment. I went to the best of the public schools in my area for elementary school and for high school and I agree with this statement completely.

Even if the children stay away from the sinful social scene, they will likely be brainwashed and turned into Godless fools.

He'd tell you himself that he does not have children, that his situation enabled a certain safety (for lack of a better word) which those of us who do have them, cannot possibly enjoy (again, for lack of a better word).

I will tell you that Alexandria was upset by one of the Many Many twists this thread has taken when Elizabeth mention something about White Trash. Now, earlier it was mentioned that families move to a certain area to be by a priest/school though they are financially strapped. So, when Elizabeth threw in "White Trash" it almost seemed that she was talking about those poor families.
Except that both you and Alexandria know I was not.

It would only "almost seem" this way to someone with a very big chip

on her shoulder who was spoiling for a confrontation.

To anyone out there not feigning scandal at the term 'white trash' it is

the only shorthand I could think of to describe someone like the

characters in To Kill a Mockingbird. Specifically, Mayella Violet

Ewell and her father, Bob Ewell.

Let's get this straight Liz.

I don't know what your problem is, but if anyone has a chip of the shoulder, it is you.

You seem to have it in for anyone that doesn't see things the "Liz Way" - either they agree with you, or you and your friends have it in for them.

I also get the impression that you absolutely drool whenever there is a hint of any kind of scandal in the traditional world - all the more to drool over if it involves the sedevacantists.

As for the "white trash" comment, it is the way your wrote it that caused offense - in such a smug and elitist fashion; it wasn't because you, dear Elizabeth, wrote it.

Lastly, for someone who continually is on her soapbox complaining about the lack of charity in traditional circles, you evince little of it yourself.

You think this maybe because you want everything swept under the rug? Bad fruits can be ignored because of "the cause" possibly? I think you've bought what DLD/AJC/DJS are peddling.
