[quote=Anonymous]I'm Jewish and DH is Catholic (not practicing). I married my DH because I loved him. I initially worried about my parents accepting him but they fell in love with him too. He's an awesome guy and it would have been a huge loss to have walked away from him over religion. It was tough in the early years because neither of us wanted to ask the other to give up his/her religious traditions. We celebrated both sets of holidays but since I observe and DH doesn't, we eventually settled on raising the kids Jewish. They all started religious school in K or 1st. Out of respect for DH, we continue to celebrate the Christian holidays but in a secular way. About 1/4 of our friends are interfaith. In most cases the kids are Jewish. As a matter of fact, several mom friends converted to Judaism. We also have a number of interfaith siblings and cousins but only 1 is raising the kids Christian. [/quote]
