: You weren't in a choir? You weren't made to sing hymns in Latin? You didn't have to sing a solo at the christmas midnight mass where you were so tired that you could barely belt out the words to "Away In A Manger" only to come back from christmas vacation to all of the kids making fun of you because you were the only 12 year old that couldn't stay up until midnight??
We had a special children's Mass that was at like 7 pm on Christmas Eve and we had to dress up like angels or shepherds...then they herded us like sheep into the church and we sat down with our parents...I've blocked out a lot of my childhood years though, so who knows? I KNOW that there was no Latin...I wish there was...Mass would be much more interesting if I didn't understand it.
