OP I hope you didn't already post this and I just missed it - you left the church, what do you consider yourself now, religiously? Christian? Atheist? Something else? You also mentioned you wish your kids could get the public speaking experience and confidence that comes from proselytizing, and there's gotta be a camp or something out there that would be excellent for that. I guess that comment struck me so powerfully because I have a toddler son - I grew up in a Methodist household and left the church very early on (like 13-14 years old) and would absolutely not send him to any church-run event. I'm not militantly atheist (or at all), I just think it's best to keep him out of the hands of people who might lie or frighten him in the name of gaining a new member. Having said all that, he goes to a Jewish daycare, so clearly my priorities are weird... shabbat every friday? Totally fine! Vacation Bible Schooll? OH HELL NAW
