They are both very supportive of my beliefs. I later learned that not everyone is lucky like me. Teenagers want someone to respect them and listen to them. Religion is a very serious matter and I wish families would discuss it, instead of lecturing and arguing about it. There are many, many religions out there.
Teenagers are citizens of the United States.
Under the First Amendment, all citizens of the United States have freedom of religion. Freedom of religion means ANY religion. Unfortunately, not every teenager has this freedom. Most teenagers are forced to hide their books, candles, and jewelry. It is a parent's decision to make rules for their child.
