Absolutely one-hundred percent correct. (according to me)
Just encourage your kids to have open minds and let them know you will back their sound decisions in the matter whether you agree with them or not. Then, as young adults or adults, they should be equipped to make their own decisions.
That said, here is one reason why I am happy my children will be attending a Catholic Church: With all the crap kids are capable of seeing around them, with how vicious kids can be to each other, with all the differences in our communities - I want my kids to see that there is a place where people come together and assemble, talk, and act civilly. At their best, congregations represent the better part of human nature we so often see the other side of.
