[quote=Anonymous]Both my kids attended church (progressive Christian) through confirmation, and chose to be confirmed. It was an expectation that they would attend church and participate in Sunday school/youth group up to that point, and then the decision was theirs. Both eventually stopped participating, one right away and the other after a couple of years of youth group. I think it's fine. They have an understanding what it's like to be a part of a faith community, what it means to be accepted "just as you are," and what working for social justice looks like. They may come back to it at some later point in their lives--as a lot of people tend to do once they start a family. Or not. I feel like I've provided the foundation and the rest is up to them.[/quote]
