[quote=Anonymous]My parents doing "more" or "less" with respect to my upbringing would not have in any way changed my ultimate decision as a college student to leave the church. Had they done more in terms of forcing me to pray the rosary or go to confession, it might have driven me out sooner. Had we been just Christmas-and-Easter Catholics, I might have "stayed" longer, but it would have been meaningless and empty. OP, you've given them exposure to the church. You've baptised them. Hopefully, you've modeled moral behavior. At this point, it's going to be up to them. I do agree with the PP that if you have shielded them from the hypocrisy and, uh, "issues" with the church, it's likely to really shatter their faith when they find it out. At a minimum, let them be aware of the flaws and sins in the church's very recent history.[/quote]
