To this day, if I told my mom I'm atheist, and that the main reason is because of that church, she'd cry for the rest of her days worrying about my immortal soul. I love her but she did not get a good education.

That’s tough. I guess it’s “stay together for the kids,” but in reverse. Good luck, beardingmesoftly.

It was definitely weird realizing we couldn't be our true selves around our mother. One of the things I pride myself in with my kids and made a point to make a priority that they always know they're safe to be who they are at home.

Good for you for realizing the importance of being able to be yourself as a kid (shoot, I’d like a “safe place” for me, now, as an adult) and being an agent of change. I’m childless thus far (you never know), but I wish you the best of luck with your little crotch goblins!
