I can understand @no one point of view, but based on my personal experiences, being a open book is a really really bad idea.They have been religiously indoctrinated, but their moderates. Mom specifically told me that Hell was invented to scare people to join the religion. If she's going to follow christianity despite this teaching the least she can do is tell her child this at the right time.
That aside, I don't see any reason to hold on to your grudge against your parents in this scenario, yes they didn't burden you with their brand of bs on top of your school mandated bs, when their brand of bs might have been slightly better than that other one, but bs is still bs! I can understand your expectations of them understanding their own child, but it's not always that simple, parents are humans too and often won't know things about you unless you open up to them. If all parents could really understand the suffering of their child without being told, so many children around the world wouldn't be getting abused right now. Religious brainwashing is akin to child abuse in a sense, but it is especially harder for parents to understand when they themselves have been religiously indoctrinated.
And of course that bs is still bs, but just because both opinions are wrong, it doesn't mean there isn't a huge gap between them.
They both lived during Communism and hated it.I taught that they've learned how dangerous brainwashing can be. I don't find it shocking that they don't always recognize brainwashing, but at least try to protect themselves and me as much as possible from what they consider to be brainwashing.
