I remember when I was four or five or something, my grandmother had instilled in me the belief in God. So I told my father that I believed in God. He replied that he didn't but it was all right if I did. I then realized that God's existance was not settled once and for all, and stopped believing.
So for me it was a positive experience that my father said he didn't believe.
