[quote=Anonymous]My FIL is a religious nutjob. First, he is never allowed around the kids without supervision. We hover like crazy when he's around, and do our best to steer the conversation toward safe topics - but it's getting harder to find any! Second, we simply tell the kids "Grandpa has a lot of beliefs that we strongly disagree with. There's no need to get into a discussion with him over any of them, but if you hear him say things that don't sound right to you, please file it away and ask us about it after the party is over.". That has led to some interesting discussions, but I'd rather have the kids ask me than just let it sit in their heads unaddressed. DH gave up on trying to have any sort of discussion with his father about any of these topics long ago. It just isn't worth calling him out when he claims the Earth is 8,000 years old or that gays can be "fixed" through religious therapy.[/quote]
