It was not easy for me to teach her about Judiasm because I knew nothing, or at least very little. However, since my parents are Jewish, she is exposed to it a little bit. I do not know that one religion in particular is a better base than another, but since my husband's family is Catholic, they can help me and my daughter learn about it. I have the feeling I am not able to explain myself too well. There are times I wonder if I made the right choice. Not having any religious upbringing caused me a lot of confusion as I got older, especially when I got married and had children, and was finally exposed to a religion because of his family. I just don't want her to feel the same way.
