What do the Children Say?

Dear Friends,

I want to direct you to a very important article that appeared in the J-Weekly. It is an interview with young adults who are from interfaith families. As I have said in the past, try to remain open to what they are saying. If some of what they say is troubling to you, call me. But please listen to them. They say what worked and what didn't work for them. They indicate where they stand now with their religious identity.

Parents can be the most surprised of all. That's OK, just do your best. Children are sent to us to help us grow and stretch. Welcome to parenthood!
