Child's religion

I haven't met parents who have different religion. As all i know, one of the couple is going to change his or her religion because of love. I know most here from Christian to born again or from roman catholic to Christian. Maybe if it really happens, the thing that may happen is the decision of the ruler. The boss. It all depend on their communication and relationship. Still the parent will decide because the children can't. Or the mother because the father respect her so much and love her. It is all about respect.

Every child born is a free soul, an independent soul. So no one should try and force their religion on the child. Everyone has his/her own different beliefs and no matter what you do you will not be able to force your beliefs into their hearts and someday they will practice the religion that they belief is right. So you should just let the child be.

In my house its up to the children..My husband isnt religious, I'm Pagan..my kids are free to decide for themselves and thats how it should be as far as I'm concerned

Free !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If there are two parents with two different religion the child should bear the religion of the father. But when the child comes to an age where he can already decide then he must decide what his religion will be.

whichever parent's religion anujain75. whatever. anyway the child is child, and don't need religion yet. when the child grew old, he/she must have a religion of his/her own.

My ex-girlfriend and I used to debate this all the time. She's Jewish and I'm Christian. I go to the United Church of Christ. We decided if we ever had kids we would each take them on alternating weeks to our house of worship. This would allow them one day off during the weekend toplay with their friends and do activities, but would still honor both of our faiths. Furthermore we decided that if it was a big day in either faith, we would all go to that service. The last thing we decided was that if our child decided to adopt another faith that wasn't either of ours, we would be okay as long as it wasn't Satanism or being an Atheist which I know is not the same thing, we would have dealt with it.

It is up to the parents. In some households the couple has decided that the children will be the religion of their mom. I have heard that when a Catholic married outside the faith back in the day, the children were raised Catholic. But these days a Catholic parent may want their children to be raised in the other religion. Who knows.This is one of those questions that a couple should decide Way before they get pregnant.They may decide that the child is learn both religions or neither religion.

the religion of the child will be whatever their own religion is. it could be the same as the mother, or as the father, or something completely different, or none at all. children are more capable of making their own spiritual way in the world than people give them credit for.

It depends on the parents and the child..I known some children who decided to have no religion and other choose either their moms or dads and some even go another whole new direction and have a completely different religion..

i think they should follow the religion of their godfather sorry just kidding. i think it's better if their parents teach them the general morality till the children is mature enough to choose their own religion.

whatever religion the child believes in. its not limited to those two either.

i feel its a personal choice of the parents and the more importantly at the child.what i would do in such a case would to allow the child the benefit learning the good parts of both the religions and experience the best of both the worlds and also allow the child to grow happily without feeling cheated.and then when he grows up he should be free to choose the religion he desires.

I think the parents should let the children grow up first. And when they reach particular age, the parents explain to them about each religion and let them choose by themselves. Because we can't push a belief to someone else, they have to realize the main point and the importance of that belief to be the followers. That's the right thing to do.

it depends what compromises the parents have. but for me, it is the decision of the child to choose what religion he wants. you just have to let your child understand the religions you have. you don't have to push your child. you can both guide your child. as long as the differences of religion do not affect your relationship, it wouldn't matter which religion your child choose. respect and understanding are important
