This is for parents with religious beliefs. Do you encourage them to follow your faith or find their own?

I wanted to know if you try and involve them in your religion but allow them freedom to decide what they want or do you ask them to follow your beliefs. Would you care if they followed another religion, or none at all?

I encourage them to make independent investigation of truth
and freely decide their way of life. Each individual, including
each of my children, is endowed with intelligence to ask questions,
to find answers and to apply them for a good life, suitable to particular tastes, talents and circumstances.
The Internet, since this Year of Dragon 2012, can provide free access to truth for all mature human beings who want to decide their own destinies.

Abdul-Baha says:
“If you strive unceasingly, if you make a great effort, if you put forward extraordinary exertion, then these people will be awakened, their eyes will be opened and their ears unstopped, so that they can hear the melodious music which streams down from the supreme concourse, the notes and strains of which have been played from all eternity ever enrapturing with the thousand harmonious accompaniments the pure in the heart.” (Abdu’l-Baha, Divine Philosophy, p. 138)
