[quote=Anonymous]Are your parents super religious? What is their specific beef? My (Christian) parents would not dream of acting this way against me for marrying a Jewish guy and raising our children Jewish. It sounds like there is something "else" there, but maybe I'm naive. If I were in your shoes, I would either just confront it head-on or really try to create more distance. Clearly you can't keep repeating the same cycle and hoping for the best. By confront it head on, I mean either write them a long letter explaining your position as tactfully as possible or better yet ask them for a get-together where it's just you and them. Sometimes people react better when they have time to think and won't get as defensive if they read it first, which is why that option has worked for me to bring up and resolve conflict.[/quote]
