I don't think that.  I just don't get why, if you never come any other time, being there on Christmas and Easter means so much to you. .[/quote]

If you are Catholic you have a special obligation to receive communion on Easter. It's canon law.

Very true, it's just interesting that if canon law matters so much to these families that they only show up those two days of the year.

OP, I am Catholic and I appreciate the sentiment with which you are venting.  We showed up at church 1/2hr early and had to let our normally wonderfully-behaved preschooler run around in the lobby to burn energy until Mass started simply so that we could get a seat.  And, while I think it's wonderful any time families show up for church, it was full of kids who clearly didn't know how to behave since sitting quietly at Mass for an hour was a new experience for them.

I hope to see more of these folks more than once a year since we have a wonderful parish, but I agree it is a bit frustrating sometimes from a logistical standpoint for us regulars![/quote]
