education

I tutor two boys, 10 (for three years) and 15 (for one and a half years). One is homeschooled and is probably headed for a writing career, and the other is at a Catholic school and is probably headed for a STEM career. Their families treat me like a king-man, and neither family is Catholic. What does that say about Catholics in general, and Francis in particular, their words so high-sounding but unkind, ungenerous, and demeaning, reflecting souls to match? Is it a problem from the bottom up or the top down? Is more education for Catholics futile?
