It's a daycare center.  [/quote]

At a church?

Someone was complaining a month or so ago about a similar thing at a preschool or daycare at a Methodist church.   It seems silly to get upset about this especially if it is a typical preschool/kids grace. Consider it a good lesson in basic dinner manners (sitting quietly and respectfully).[/quote]

Nope, it's not a church daycare.  I'd expect it at a church.  The daycare doesn't have any religious affiliation but they're praying to Jesus before meals.  I'm perfectly happy with expressing gratitude before meals, but praying to Jesus seems to cross a line.[/quote]

Can you share the center?  I would hate to find myself in your situation.

If you (and your kid) are settled into a center, it can be difficult to switch.  This presupposes that you could even find a place to switch to at this point.  I would be really uncomfortable with what you are describing, but I would be worried I would be stuck if I found myself at such a center.  If I (or anyone else who would care) knew about the religious activities ahead of time, we wouldn't enroll in that center and would find another option while we still had the opportunity to make an informed decision.  Thanks!
