Don't baptize them and tell her you did. Win-Win. Problem solved.

Tell grandma to mind her own business.

Hopefully the last thing she does on the earth is sneak your kids out behind your back and have them baptized.

Thus far you have been bad parents. Change that. Baptize your children.

What kind of catholic doesn't baptize their children after they're born ? Not raising them catholic is a mistake on your part. I bet they choose their bedtime too. How many different meals do you prepare each night for 2 kids and a wife ? I bet 3. DO SOMETHING !

Cackle maniacally when you tell her "NO!" Then never visit her again, since you hate her anyway it shouldn't be a problem.

Dying wishes are so selfish of those who are about to be deceased. Guilting their loved ones to do things while you’re on your death bed isnt right

Lol dude take off your fedora and baptize your kids

Haven’t read the entire thread, but of what I have, you’ve gotten a bunch of responses from some projecting arse retards.
“She’s selfish”?!?!? This woman is knocking on deaths door and what is she doing? Blowing it out? Checking off her bucket list?
No. In her final days, her efforts are toward securing eternal bliss for her great grand children.
I don’t share her convictions, but I can recognize her intentions are far from selfish.

I know I’m late to the conversation here but I am similar to you. I have not had my children baptized, I was brought up catholic.
If it was requested by an elder family member, I’d have the kids baptized if it meant that much to them. It doesn’t mean much to me one way or another and to the kids it’s a splash of water.

I would absolutely do it, for the measure of peace it will bring her. It’s very rare to be in a position to do that.

You should "Ok, Boomer" her.

I'm baptist and we don't believe that the Catholic church's infant baptism has any significance in terms of salvation. If sprinkling water from a bird feeder on kid's head makes granny feel better, knock it out.
ETA: that being said, my grandmother, who was Church of Christ, once told me that I was going to hell because I wasn't Church of Christ. I told her that I had a reciprocal policy on those kinds of comments. She never brought it up again.

Children are not capable of making many decisions, but when they are old enough to do it it’s not a problem to change. It’s not like you are letting them choose to cut off their genitals there is no undoing that.

If you think baptism is gonna lock people into a certain path, you haven’t met many people.
Besides the idea that you’re raising your kids in a “neutral” environment is simply raising them to be neutral toward religion. You’re passing on the values whether you think you are or not. Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

Not just no, but "f" no. Your kids, your rules. Me and my lady will raise ours the exact same. If they want to practice a religion, they are free to do so. We will not indoctrinate them.
