[quote=Anonymous]The kids is where you'll have the fights. Think it out very carefully, and realize it still may out play out the way you want.

I'm Christian married to a Muslim. We agreed the kids would be Muslim, because that's required in his home country. But he also wanted them to go to Islamic school. I researched it while pregnant and seriously was OK with a particular school near us.

But as my oldest son got older, I felt less and less comfortable with that choice. And I changed my mind. I'm lucky I have a flexible husband, and our compromise was a secular private school. But what if he hadn't been? I'd promised one thing and had genuinely meant it at the time. Only to change my mind later.

And now our kids are older, in elementary school, and not religious at all. Which is OK with my husband and me. We aren't very observant ourselves. But I've got the in laws on both sides in a perpetual state of panic over my children's souls.

Bottom line, the challenges don't go away.[/quote]
