we tried to raise our kids with religion. Church every week, sunday school, baptisms, etc. One random day in church, our then 5 year old turned and said, “Mama, there is no G-d. This is not true”.
No idea how he spontaneously and unprompted came to that conclusion at 5.
I believed in the value of a religion as a way to control the kids and maybe provide some comfort or guidance through early years and was hoping they wouldnt figure that out till 25 or 30 if ever….
