  This issue causes so much distress and ill-feeling, and I can understand how you feel. From your priest's point of view, years of baptising babies who are never seen in church again except perhaps for their wedding and funeral can be very disheartening. It raises questions about what is Baptism, and what does it mean when it's not accompanied by faith. Many priests consequently don't baptise babies of non-churchgoing families. Some insist at least one parent must come to Mass every week for a certain period and attend a preparation course, before their baby can be baptised. Fr Ed
