[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]“and it will be a hard road to come back to the church later if they want to, given that they have already rejected the church.” Why do you believe the above? What will make it so hard to be confirmed later?[/quote] Speaking as someone who decided not to be confirmed in high school, when "everyone else" was doing it, and nonetheless continued to attend church, and ultimately was confirmed in my 20s -- I don't think there is any basis for OP's statement. Not being confirmed is not the same as rejecting a church. My mom was, certainly, upset at my choice. But she told me that it was absolutely my choice, and that she trusted that she had taught me values that would stay with me, AND she trusted that God would work in my life whether or not I was confirmed at that time. I think OP needs to examine her own faith, and ask herself whether she has that same trust. [/quote]
