In my late teens and early 20's I pulled away from my familys' faith and religion. This didn't go over too well with my parents. They tried to "guilt-trip" me into changing my mind. (All to no avail.)...Eventually they "gave up." I knew things had changed when I came over to visit them on Sundays and they treated me like one of their friends who didn't practice their religion. All of the "guilt-trips" and "heated emotions" were gone. They accepted that I was a "separate person" in my own "right" when it came to religion and politics and everything in life...We showed respect for each other and our "differences." They didn't try to "micro-manage" my life anymore.
