Raising an Atheist
#17
RE: Raising an Atheist
My kids know I'm atheist. Two of them have joined here, but interaction has been minimal. They know where I stand but we don't make a habit of telling them what we think they should think or believe.

In time, they will be able to make their own decisions and I'm fine with whatever they believe. That being said, we don't go to church, but we have in the past, when I did believe. I want them to question things. All things. And if there is no answer, we don't make one up nor will we tell them "god did it".

Kids don't come with manuals and we all just do the best we can.
