I was born into a muslim family.
my girl raised catholic.
I decided a few years ago to stop fighting the feelings I had inside myself about my religion and just religion in general and be true to myself. Obviously admitting to your muslim family that you're no longer muslim is difficult, they pretty much disowned me.
Now regarding my son, we've agreed that forcing religion on a child when he has no ability to grasp such an abstract concept is unfair. It kind of skews their views of other religion and I feel like develops a bias within them.
If my son grows up to be Christian, Catholic, Muslim, Buddhist, whatever.....I'm fine with it.
If he decides religion isn't for him like me, cool.
Live and let live.
