It would be pretty silly to wait for the consecration bells before noticing what’s happening at the altar. Often when I attend the EF (in fact every time), the bells are rung starting at the Sanctus to alert people to start paying attention if they have been distracted up to that point. The congregation gets pretty quiet from that point onward. At least that’s what happens at the EF I attend. Perhaps things are done differently where you are.
Goodness! Read MY posts again. That’s the problem with wrestling with a few different youngsters, you don’t always see what’s happening at the altar which is my sole resaon for loving the audible canon. Like I said, I’m sure many wouldn’t have a problem with attention but there are many of us young mothers with 1 & 2 year olds that do! I ALWAYS know when the Consecreation occurs at the OF. I’m always aware of it and I’m always to devote as much attention as possible because I know when it occurs. This has made all of the difference in my life!

So again, please read this post in particular:

So please, don’t tell me any perfect children stories or tell me that the bells are ringing during the Consecration because my children are not perfect (God has blessed those of you with perfectly behaved toddlers) and the bells are after the Consecration. I’m still actually shocked that so many use the bell argument.🤷
