Obeying in the small things (turning off a video game is a small thing) helps when you address the important things (praying, going to Church).

Food can be a real power struggle in some families. I would suggest talking to the school counselor to get some ideas how to handle this.
 
Why is it that priests are not who Catholics want to go talk to? This is just a rhetorical question. I have my own theories. :roll_eyes:

If you ask your parent, and they permit, it is not a sin. It’s a sin if you ask and they say “yes, you need to turn it off now”, and you do not.

Q.) You dont need to go to church?

A.) The problem is not “Not going to Mass” but not loving Jesus by spending an hour of worship (prayer and thanksgiving) without a just reason (e.g. sick, or wounded, or a serious hardship). I think the term “obligated” doesnt help understand the positive reason for going to Mass. It’s a time to open our hearts to Scripture, prayer, self examination of conscience, Eucharist, and supporting one another in the faith. It’s not just about us, but making ourselves available to participate in the life of the Church.

Thanks for the reply that s great you know i just needed to save game that s why i asked etc for short time then that s okay since you told me about when i got allowed for then quickly shut down console

next thing

How whould you answer if you got into situation

Why do you need to go to mass?
why do you pray always?

what to say should i say to first

Well we are obligated by the church to go to mass and not going to mass we are disobeying our lord

if this isnt enough good tell me your way of explanation example and for prayer
 
Dear freind thanks for telling me and i finished shcool like in 2005
 
My friend, I did explain why we should go to Mass. 🙂

Are you thankful for Scripture? Are you thankful for Jesus coming down from heaven and giving His body and blood as a sacrifice for our sins, so that we can have life in the Spirit?

Then you should be thankful to go to Mass. Dont worry about convincing others. First be convicted yourself.

Ammi remember where in bible teach us about loving others as yourself? that love is when we show to each other with humility yet to learn that takes time and problem is pride when we beat pride then we can learn what is love unitil then we are lost
 
I understand and when i readed about word trying i once saw in movie star wars dont try just do or dont it i think this makes sense trying we dont think with trying we dont give enough once when i readed also one article its called stingy with emotions let me show you link this is great lecture 4 Signs That You're Emotionally Stingy - Pure Atma
 
I canoot say that my freind only lord can judge for this matter yet i can only say that word you is dangerous word as starting word lets do our best to be assertive and use I feel or start when what happened how happened

I feel how i feel because what happened its great lecture psyhology will you think about that?

may our lord bless you and this idea isnt my i was thinking alot while writting and our thanks to our lord i got to conclusions glory to him
 
😁 ok. You make my head spin.

Anyway… hope you enjoy Mass.

And not too much video games!
 
Thank you and of course mass is much more important than enything!

going to church is everything withoud it we are lost and that s why we need it it can heal us i even alot time tough as spiritual hospital it make sense since there we conffes our sins and i think this is

great blessing how beautifull it is when we are together praying lets all think like that and help each other to everyone i wish best in life
 
I’m editing my post here which originally inquired about the poster’s circumstances with respect to school and his parents, in view of the explanation another poster gave below.

Ok, I didn’t see that post.
Didn’t mean to sound insensitive but unfortunately we do have a lot of trolls on the forum, so without background, we don’t know if someone is sincere.

Thank you for the explanation as it puts things in a more proper perspective.

I also don’t want to sound dismissive but it would seem that in this special circumstance, it might be better to talk to either a priest or else someone close to the family who knows the situation better.
I know the OP said please don’t say talk to a priest…so maybe a counselor, or a close friend from church, etc.
