[quote=Anonymous]I don't see any challenge here at all. I see grandparents sharing one aspect of their lives with you and their kids -- talk of religion and an offer to pay for bar mitzvahs. What I do see is that you and your husband don't seem clear on how you each want to raise your kids spiritually (speaking of the confusion/assumptions about bar mitzvahs). If your kids are old enough to have a bar mitzvah, they are old enough, in my opinion, to have some true input into their own religious and spiritual exploration. I say this as someone in a mixed Christian/Muslim marriage very similar to what you describe. We aren't heavy practitioners and feel more spiritual than religious. But that's what works for us. Our children deserve the opportunity to explore for themselves. Try starting there. Your inlaws won't matter so much....[/quote]
