[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So a little prayer before a meal is indoctrination? Is that what you believe? -former Catholic, not religious - But how is this damaging? [/quote] A bracha over particular foods is what religious Jews (why would a secular person want any prayer?) do. A general prayer grace feels very Christian to me, and not appropriate for teaching a Jewish child. I was recently at a friends house for dinner - he said a Christian grace like this, and even mentioned Jesus. I was fine with that. It was HIS house. At my house, if we say a prayer before eating its a traditional jewish blessing on the particular food. Its what we do. At OUR house. OPs mom has no right to tell her what to do at her house. You have less right. [/quote]
