Is There Ever a Right Age To Break It To Your Kids?

I told my son about religion as an educational lesson on different beliefs, so he never believed them, he just has an understanding.   Nothing to be undone.

 I just let my kid watch anime and read manga and comics, then blended in the religious books. 
Interesting how often the main character in the series has to be magically resurrected.   “If you want your children to be intelligent, read them fairy tales. If
you want them to be more intelligent, read them more fairy tales.”

You must realize very soon he will ask what you believe.  My daughter did at age 7.  I figured that meant she was ready so I said I didn’t believe.  She said, “Well I do”, and moved right on to something else.  This was about 6 months ago and not a word was said about it since.

i was raised by athiest parents and i used to beg my dad to tell me about different religous beliefs becuase i thought they were really interesting and often funny.  he would tell me about snake handlers and flood stories, talking snakes, and how hades abducted persephone; and when he was done i would giggle and ask him to tell me about a different one.  when other kids were reading goosebumps i was reading greek and roman mythology, i even had a giant book on native american myths.  but my favorites were always the snake handlers… that just seemed awsome to a young boy.  stupid, but awsome.

i never believed in the myths i just loved the stories and i think your children are more ready than you think to handle a discussion about religions.

This assumes the kid has been indoctrinated from the start, so there’s something new and scary to “break” to them.
