re: How important is it that your children grow up to hold the same values as you?

force their kids
Only “forced thinking” towards our kids was re safety. That was not negotiable.
Respect them as individuals > Forced
Trust > Control
No respect and no trust = no relationship
Lots of insecure people out there (ironically) get this wrong.

Obviously there are rules for your kids and "do not cross" lines. You're their parent, not their friend or solely a Socratic teacher allowing them to do whatever they want. There are limits.
My comments are more in how you develop them into thinking beings and you have to foster that type of thinking and discussion from a very young age. I've found that sending my kids to a Christian private school and taking the approach with them that I have has resulted in two fairly well-adjusted kids to have their heads on straight in regard to the big stuff. They're still figuring it out, but they also still include me in their deliberations.

It is extremely important that my child follow in my footsteps by espousing the teachings of The Black Pope, Anton LaVey.

I am sure that some here have raised their children in conservative homes, only to have them grow up to be much less conservative. Is this something that bothers you? Why do you believe your kids went a different direction when other folks' kids did not?
My daughter is more liberal than my husband or I.
I think it's because she's young- I was more liberal at her age too.
It does not bother me.. mainly because I assume her views will tighten up as she and her husband try to make their own way in this world- and as their own children get older.

I have no greater joy than to hear my children are walking in the truth.
