I think it's because a lot of kids are raised going to church, but not being raised Christian at home. And so when they grow up and have to decide for themself if they'll go to church, they don't see any point in doing so because they don't have a personal relationship with God- church is just a routine for them. So they decide notto go and it continues for generations.

Also, I think it's because Sunday school and youth group classes today focus so much on being "modern and "entertaining", that when the kids become adults, they have to go to real church which seems "boring" because there is no room for selfish things there. I think if we start them off in nursery and children's church learning scriptures and understanding God instead of playing games and having snacks, tey will be used to it and learn to love it for when they get older.
