to lurk at the back of the Sunday School...

[SarahJim]

to find out exactly what they're telling my DCs while we're in the service?

More back ground needed but, my gut instint is YABU. You clearly go to church and trust (or not) the people caring for your children to give them a good message. You should be careful, they may be rivals from another church trying to convert your little darlings to Tescoism or another made up religion. Not that all of them aren't IMO.

What do you think they are telling her?

Why not just ask your kids? Then when they come home having learnt about the fourth King, you can point out this isn't actually in the bible.

Or do you lurk at the back of class at school just to check they don't say anything you don't agree with too?

Why do you go to a church if you don't trust the teaching there?

in the Bible there is no mention of the number of Kings, just the number of gifts! And its not Kings in the Bible either

You have a right to be there. Our Sunday school has a termly "bring your parent" session so we can see what they are doing.

i'm guessing that they're probably telling her the same stuff the vicar's telling you.
just a bit simpler.

YABU on your original point, but there's no harm in going in to SS just to see, but not because you need to find out if they'er good in their reigious instruction.

weegiemum I know, but the story of the fourth King is all about how he gets left behind and misses seeing the baby Jesus (can't remember after that). I was told it in my childhood, along with how the Robin got its red breast; both bothered me as being told in Sunday school and about Jesus, so I thought they were supposed to be some kind of truth. Not some victorian flight of fancy. I was my daughter got told the same at a modern Sunday school.

Most Sunday schools give out sheets at least partly so the parents can know what the kids have been doing. Its not great to have parents unless they are helping as the kids get unsettled.

yeah, mummytime, all those stories are bollocks.
