My oldest and youngest are both atheist. All three were allowed to go to church with friends and I answered their questions when they came up...often starting the answers with 'some people believe'. They attended Vacation Bible School because it was something to do and their friends were there.
My youngest pretty much was done by age 10 when he attended what turned out to be a hellfire and brimstone tent revival with a buddy of his. He was actually quite upset about the whole thing for a while.
The middle one goes to church when it suits her, usually to please people around her but I really don't think there's much of a faith there.
I stayed out of their decisions regarding religion after being forced to play the Catholic game and go to Catholic schools myself.
