7-Year-Old Steals Car to Avoid Going to Church

7-Year-Old Steals Car to Avoid Going to Church 2016-09-30T15:55:35-05:00

I’d love to tell you that my children, when they were young, always loved going to church…. But no. 

They were pretty virtuous youngsters, and I was immensely proud of them; but sometimes they were in the middle of a game with friends or they were watching TV, and they just didn’t want to get in the car and drive to Mass.  We did it anyway; they were not permitted to miss; but I hated that it sometimes seemed that I was “punishing” them by requiring that they attend the Sunday liturgy, when the neighbor children could stay home and enjoy the sunshine.

I never had THIS happen though!  This little seven-year-old boy stole his dad’s car and drove toward home, just to avoid going to church.
