Poll: If the teenaged child you'd raised to hold the same religious views as yourself came to you and said they no longer shared those beliefs, how would you handle it?
This poll is closed.
C'est la vie; win some, lose some.

I'd respect their choice whether or not to attend customary religious activities or the atheist equivalent. (Is there one? Skepticism day camp?)

I'd try my best to understand what had changed in their thinking and to understand their new beliefs.

I would do my best to reason with them to dissuade them from leaving the beliefs they were raised in.

While they are my dependents I'd still expect them to participate in the culture of the family, including religiously themed activities or their skepticism themed alternative - if there is one.

I would not accept their decision and forbid them to speak of it.

I would throw them out of the house and have nothing more to do with them.

If their beliefs did not change by the time they were independent, I would likely have less to do with them than I would otherwise.

I would end them. If God/reason can't have them, neither will Satan/a cult.

PS - I voted for the first 4.

Glad to see Literalism is finally taking hold.
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
