[quote=Anonymous]I have a similar perspective from the opposite side. My best friend is Jewish and I have been celebrating Passover with his family for over 30 years, long before I married and had kids. We still celebrate with them. We teach our children that while we are Christian, we have many friends who are Jewish (which we do) and we honor them by celebrating this important holiday with them. While celebrating this holiday, we follow their customs and do what they do. We use it as a lesson in other religions and how to respect people of other religions. You can use the same logic for the December dilemma as you call it. That you are a Jewish family, but that many people you know are Christian and celebrate Christmas. That you and they should be respectful of the other people's religion. We teach our children a little bit about Judaism the week of Passover. You can teach your children a little about Christianity during Christmas and how to be respectful. [/quote]
