As parents it's our job to make sure that they have the best possible life. A life without Christ holds no promises. I'm so glad that my mother took us to to church, even forsed us to when we didn't feel like it. I walked away from God for quite awhile. I believe I would still have gone to heaven becasue I gave my heart to Christ when I was nine. I didn't enjoy the life that God had planned for me until I returned to Him. It was the best thing that I ever did. :)
