I am fortunate in that I was raised in a free thinking household and I plan the same for my kids. They have encountered some fundamentalism at school, but nothing to bad as of yet. We live in the North East and in a mostly liberal area.
My mother, who raised my siblings and me alone, had her faith beaten our of her in Catholic School and my father was a deadbeat dad and did not give a damn about much of anything in those days. Imagine no religion.
I am an level 6-7 on the Dawkins scale and Mrs. M. is a Buddhist but will not say so because she feels claiming to be a Buddhist in anti-Buddhist.
Our hoase is all about knowledge and the kinder side of human nature.
