[quote=Anonymous]We are secular Jews but sent our child to a Jewish day school, Chabad summer camps, and Hebrew school. We did the day school because it was just better than our public (where we had a very bad experience in K), Chabad camps because they are awesome, and Hebrew school since he was doing other Jewish things. I didn't really plan to do all that - at first, it was just a convenience that happened to be Jewish, but I really liked the community and the feeling of being surrounded by Jewish people. It was completely new for me since I grew up in a rural area where there were no Jews, and where we didn't tell anyone we were Jewish. I feel like I've given my child a chance to belong that I never had, and I don't know that he identifies strongly as Jewish (since we are so much "less" Jewish than all his friends) but I feel like it's something he may someday be very glad he was able to experience.[/quote]
