I think cognitive dissonance is mostly a problem for people who's parents don't talk out hard issues, allow questions or "live the faith" - people who take their kids to church and CCD classes and expect the church adults to teach the faith to the kids. Families who leave it at church, I guess would be the way to put it.
But yeah things like 12 year old boys going to confession to confess lustful thoughts are very hard for me to take, as well. And make me furrow my brow and squint.
