How to deal with family?
March 20, 2014 at 11:55 am
Hi,
I am 17 years old, and an open atheist with my family. The rest of them are Christians, however. I am just wondering how to deal with my mom, who will tell me things like, "I talk to Jesus" and smirk a little bit. I don't know what to say to her, because I want to be respectful because she is my mom, but she knows I'm an atheist and still says these things. It really gets on my nerves. I want to start arguing because she clearly knows I don't believe the same as her and she still says it to me, but I also want to be respectful. Do you guys know what I should do? Thanks in advance!
