I don't have any children...but someday I plan to. Here is how I like to think I'd handle it...

I'd want to talk with them, as an adult, and find out what reasons they want to convert. I'd want them to think it through before doing somthing as drastic as changing religions so that's what I'd find out why they want to. I mean, in hollywood, it's the "craze" to join the mystic church or some bull. To each their own. Anyway, once I was satisfied they were making a well thought out, informed and intellegent decision, I'd back them 100%. Like Duke said, I love them for who they are, not for what God they pray to. (or in my opinion, what avenue they choose to pray to God on...)
