What do you think?
Okay... I was lurking in the atheist/agnostic parenting forum on a message board I frequent when I read a rant by one of the ladies there.
She was upset that her MIL taught her 2.5 year daugther to say "thank you Jesus, amen" before eating. She went on about how they are not respecting their non-beliefs and so on... At first, it seems like a valid argument, until....
She states how her in-laws watch her every friday while they play softball, and that sometimes it is overnight so that the little girl is not up late.
Now, it is just me or does this seem a bit childish? I mean, her in-laws watch her for them, what seems to be every friday and they are upset that the little girl pick up saying grace before meals???
The poster even states in a later post that her MIL said that she didn't "teach" the little girl to say it, but that she sees them say grace before meals and that's how she must have picked it up.
So.... does she expect her in-laws to change their habits and beliefs for her?? Seriuosly! I mean, if my MIL watched my kids for me on a weekly basis I would not complain about something like a 2.5 year old saying an innocent prayer before eating!
I could understand if they were teaching the little girl racist things or that people who don't beleive are evil, but to complain over something like this??? PULEEZE.... if it's so terrible, find a babysitter!
Okay... mini-rant over. I feel better. LOL
