I myself has being teaching the Sunday School since two years ago, so I will constantly telling my kids about respect to not only God but also to people that have attend the service mass. Of all things I teach them, I keep on telling them about my experiences toward bad attitudes that people do during the mass and how I told them that I have shut their mouths off too (the disrespect individuals).
Despite what I have told them, they are doing it exactly as what I have said to some of them. That day, it was my third time telling strangers to shut their mouths off. I know there might some of them hate my guts but I don't see any reasons of why not telling them to do so.
Back to the teenagers as I said before, they were chit chatting whenever the choir started to sing. They followed the service Okay but when the choir started. that's when they talked. I was about to let them go but right after the Communion, there is some time that you need to be absolutely silent, and that for me, I need that space to talk to God. When the choir was singing, that's when either you keep your mouth shut OR join the choir and sing a song while give all the praises to God.
From whispering to talk loudly, I could not stand it anymore,some of them were my kids that I've taught them during the Sunday Class. Yet, sadly enough, they didn't even dare to tell their friend to be quiet. I have to be honest in this point, I am indeed feel disappointed with their attitudes. It is unspoken rules it seemed for community here that they have to remain silent even when things obviously seemed wrong in order to preserve the 'peace'.
I took the bad role, slashing out my anger (without yelling them loudly) and turned my back to them and told them to fucking shut their mouth or even better, zipped that mouth tightly. They have practically growing up with the church yet they seemed to let thing minor things passed them by.
It's up to them how they would judge me. I hope they can reflect what they have done wrong in the house of the Lord.
