you don't get out of church till 5? ewwww i'm assuming that means the decision is made that your boy is ditching church?...if so ... does it matter what you do? isn't the lesson already taught?

I know it sounds harsh but how old are these boys? Sounds like sports trumps church.

From my old age I can tell you this. I still attend church long after I quit playing football or wrestling.

Church was the priority at our house.

Thumbs up What will matter the most in 10 years??

You should go to Sacrament at least. I know that there are instant blessings in keeping the Sabbath day holy. And Church is so important to be able to confront the challenges of the week following Sunday:-))))

I hate watching recorded sports. Now if you could only record church meetings. They're as good recorded as live or BYU-TV wouldn't have a whole channel that runs nothing but conference talks and Tuesday Forum speeches.
