A United States federal program to fund abstinence only sex education was initiated in 1996. The concept has been around for a lot longer, of course.

Do children have to fast on Good Friday?

Roman Catholic AnswerNo, the current law in effect establishes abstinence (abstaining from meat) for all who have completed their 14th year; the law of fasting is only for those who have completed their 21st year and and have not begun their 60th year. The complete regulations are in Chapter Three of the Holy Father's Apostolic Constitution on Penance below:


No meat on Friday but can eat fish?

Yes, that's right. The Roman Catholic rule of abstinence from meat on Fridays used to be for every Friday, all year, every year. Fish has always been ok on Fridays. I believe the Friday abstinence changed at the time of Vatican II, so that it is only in force during Lent


Are Catholic children required to fast during Lent?

Catholic AnswerNo, the current law for fasting does not go into effect until one has completed their twenty-first year: Current law in the Catholic Church requires abstinence from mean, but not eggs, the products of milk, or condiments made of animal fat on all Fridays of the year. In the United States, by special dispensation, the faithful may choose another form of abstinence on Fridays outside of Lent. Abstinence is required for all who have attained their fourteenth year of age. Fasting is only required on Ash Wednesday and Good Friday for all of those who have completed their twenty-first year and up until the beginning of their sixtieth year. Fasting regulations in the church currently provide for only one full meal during the day, although some food may be taken at breakfast and a collation at lunch, although, together, the amount can not equal another full meal. According to Church law, the "substantial observance" of Fridays as days of penance, whether by abstinence or in other ways, "is a grave obligation".
