You said it's not good to control in the marriage, but what happens in a marriage where the mother is really controlling and caused tension in the family;  She has mental things going on, resentment towards dad.   Things have taken for worse since she retired. Basil - Was it a sin that Jesus stayed behind in the Temple when he was 12 years old? Pat - In 1st reading, could you explain the covenant of salt? Rose - What do you think about the reception of the Holy Eucharist, for someone who can't get to mass on own.  If person receives Eucharist from a person in car and takes host, is that okay? Mike -He was talking about controlling spouses.  I had a very controlling spouse and it's kind of like an indentured servitude.  Also, my daughter has a disabled condition?  What to do?
