[QUOTE="tishthedish, post: 647759, member: 17103"] MWM, my elder son in the various manifestations of his illness has been raised Episcopalian and believed the various tenets of Christian faith. When he became manic he wanted to be fed Kosher food at the psychiatric hospital and maintained he was Jewish. Now he believes more in mysticism and astrology and twin flames. None of it pushes our buttons. We felt it was our responsibility as parents to bring them up in faith. I think it is one of the greatest gifts we give as parents, but we made it clear to our sons that as their world widened the choice was theirs. My younger son has chosen an Evangelical Christian church for his worship. We'll see what happens with his older brother. I feel as you do. We are better when we have something to believe in and aspire to. I believe in God and it will be the only relationship that will last the entirety of my life. Over the last few years in the tumult I've lived in I have treasured my faith. Al-Anon reinforces it. [/QUOTE]
