For the interfaith couples How are you going to determine what religion your child will be ?

I heart weekends!!!!
Anywho.... Fh was pretty easy bout this since I'm more religious than him. He likes my religious upbringing better anyways so it'll be all me! Probably more my mom too but my family....

still to be determined! neither of us are very religous- but FHs views are much more strict than mine- we will probably find a happy medium!

Though Fh and I are not an interfaith couple, my brother and sister in law are and I think they handle it pretty well. My brother is catholic and my sister in law was raised both cahtolic and jewish- but all her religious milestones were jewish (such as bat mitzvah, etc).
My nephew was christened which I know made my parents very happy. My sister in law and brother celebrate both christmas and hannukah and are going to let him find his path as he gets older .

Both FH and I were born and rasied Catholic. Although we do not go to church weekly ( I know, we're bad) our children will be raised Catholic and we will take our children to church when they are little. We will then leave it up to them when they are older (like after they have made thier confirmations) if they want to continue you to go or not. We both know we didn't like being forced to go to church so we won't force our children
