Interfaith Couples And Should Your Kid Be Able To Pick Jesus Out Of A Lineup?

May 8, 2024

We start the episode with a discussion of just how hard parenting has been. Then we delve into the topic of whether or not parents should feel proud when their kid doesn’t know who Jesus is, and finish up talking about interfaith couples. Could we handle it?

The Family Skeptical: We’re a married atheist couple raising two wonderful, strange children. We ask big questions, dissect weird parenting moments, and examine how society ignores or misrepresents families like ours. If you’re any stripe of non-believer who’s involved in raising children, welcome! You are our people.

Our kids are Reader (10) and Go (7), and if you want to find out how we arrived at these peculiar pseudonyms, go back to Episode 1.
