Wow, I think it's ridiculous that your religious leaders would blame you for something like this. Any choice that your child makes as an adult is just that, their choice. There isn't anything you could have done to stop her. Especially when it comes to matters of love like that, if she were willing to change her religion for marriage then there isn't anything you could have said or done to change her mind.
Of course, I don't actually agree with changing your religion just because you get married. I am married to someone of a religion other than my own, and we are perfectly happy keeping it that way without either of us converting. I'm sorry to hear that your daughter felt she had to change her religion for her partner.

Off course not, Palina. You are right, your daughter is an adult and she can pretty much do whatever she wants. You shouldn't be blamed for her decisions at all.

any choice that your child makes about his/her religion is their choice, and only they can be held responsible for it since religion is a personal choice
