Teaching your kids your beliefs is natural. The only time I have a problem is when teach them that your beliefs are the only valid ones.
Why should that be an issue, do/will you teach your children that communism, facism, etc are valid governing systems?
I will teach them to study it and find out for themselves. Im not in the business of trying to convince my kids I am God and all-knowing. Communism may not be valid to you or I, but there were persons under that system that it was very valid, and rewarding to.
Agreed.

good call. It may take me a day or 2 to give a proper response to the ethcs thread, as I am a bit busy (in the middle of a move)
@Joe, the reason I said it was indoctrination was because the kids were being forced into sexual relationships with people they didn’t want to marry in their pre-pubescent years. I don’t know if that’s “indoctrination”, but I was just saying that they were being forced into a harmful situation because of religious fundamentalism. It was basically akin to rape, at least that’s how I remember it.
Of course it’s a parent’s right, just as ruining one’s own children’s life is.
