thats an interesting question, we just learned about that whole issue in self and identity class (dont ask)...we talked about the origins of earth, man, etc. and how this stupid lawsuit is ruining everything...i think that a person should be entitled to their opinion, and adding lets say religion to a Catholic teaching anyways wouldnt do ANY harm...and the most common belief relious wise is the whole God created the world in seven days thing...i think that religion can carefully be incorporated into schools without overdoing anything...its lame in general

There is the route of reason that anything you said or did before the age of reason doesn't really apply. Still, I understand your situation and that it would make you feel uncomfortable, since there are certainly plenty of examples of God taking a child pledged to him at or before birth for various things.\n\nHmm...if you're not averse to the idea of a ritual to reverse a ritual, drop me a message...I'm getting a few ideas.

It depends on the wording of the court order.  What does it say about reasonable accomodation for visitation arrangements.  Also, take into consideration what is best for your child.  Will it take a little accomodation on your part to make the switch feasible?  If so, isn't a little compromise better for the environment of the child who will see his/her parents working together rather than against each other?

You know who the responsible parent is....YOU! Just continue being what you are, and the problem is solved. Kids are smart, and they KNOW! They want to live where there is stability, security, and love! You give them all that, so you have nothing to be concerned about! Relax!!

Just do what you think is the best for your team.  If the parents are really concerned, they can get there teen off from the team.

Talk to the school.  Every child is entitled to an education under the law, so if it means that school has to do some special accomodations for your child, so be it.  As a parent you have the right to insist on that for your child.  There may, however, be a resource the school can direct you to (like another more appropriate school)instead of modifying the child's current school enviroment.  good luck!

Consider your choices: One of you have to convert to the other religion or see if there are any civil ceremonies instead of a religious one.\n\nGood luck, congrats

Goodness, no!  Why would I invite a stranger into my house?  That's a silly question.  Who knows what would happen next.  My daughter might be exposed to religion way before her time, my family might be burned at the stake because we're Wiccan, who knows.  I'd rather keep my door firmly shut.

If they cannot agree to a solution, then they could really benefit from advice via a third party -- probably a marriage counselor as opposed to a religious person, since part of the problem lies with religion.\n\nThere are many factors that will determine what is best for the couple, and no one reading this will ever know those factors, so I certainly wouldn't take life-altering advice as to a definite step here!\n\nTruly, professional advice should be sought.

You leave...and quickly.  Do not hesitate.  Don't feel pressured into giving any explanations or talking to anyone there about your decision...they will only be harrassing you or possibly attempt to cover up for this person they're calling "pastor".  If necessary, seek legal counsel.  Talk to someone outside of the situation so at least someone else is aware of what is going on.

She can't be asking you to choose for no reason at all. Either she fears for your safety with this guy or there's something wrong with her mentally. Not trying to be funny, but parents just don't refuse their children be happy unless they have mental issues. You should sit down and talk to her to find out why and make your decision from there.

Tell the Judge.  They are supposed to rule in the best interests of the child's welfare.\n\nI assume your Dad is a good guy and can handle a daughter?\n\nYou aren't just going where you think the rules will be easier, are you?

You have good suggestions here,you can go with any or all of them. All I can say is don't leave this with the school\nadministration because they're more interested in keeping\nthings quiet than protecting your interests. You have to take action and be prepared-they won't thank you for it.

I am sure that the Court will at least consider the children's wishes. But...there are many things that will determine the Court's decision. Parent's history and current ability to provide for the children etc.....

"but I don't want my kids to suffer later due to lack of attention from both the parents."\n\nThere's your answer, "doctor".
