I have questions too.
Why are you surprised some very Catholic family members gave your daughter a bracelet?
Did you previously tell those family members to please not give her any religious gifts?
Do you not know what the images represent?
What questions were you afraid your daughter was going to ask?She quickly discarded the bracelet, thankfully, and I swooped it up and it shall never be seen again.
But we were like… wow. Just… wow.

My 5 yr old came home from school last week asking about heaven, as at least one of her friends are catholic. It’s chilling how little control over religion you have when it comes to younger kids, and it’s the age where indoctrination is most effective. It’s tough to know what to say…
-
there are tons of adults who think they have the same imaginary friend who really doesn’t exist.
-
people look for balance to the idea of their own mortality so they made up religion, then it was coopted by those looking to assume its authority.
-
friend’s parents are wrong and their dog/grandma didn’t go to heaven cause it doesn’t exist.
Obviously not those haha. Good luck though with your little one!
My 5 year old believes that unicorns exist, they are just really good at hiding in the forest. I’m not going to tell them that it’s not true.
The best I’ve been able to come up with is saying some people believe in god, some people don’t. Some people believe in ghosts, some people don’t. Everyone believes in different things, we can let them believe that without believing it ourselves.
Sounds like you have a healthy outlook on it. Thumbs up.

Is… that a stormtrooper up on that cross? Or was Jesus mando?
He’s also got some nice D-Cups.
I think I’ve seen the same iconography in Quake with the flayed humanoids crucified to the walls on some levels.
At least it’s not the americanized handsome white Jesus… But yeah I wouldn’t give a child a zombie Jesus on a cross bracelet
Weird mandalorian bracelet but ok.
