This Jewish couple was telling me that when their daughter was five, she kept asking them why she was Jewish, and her mom explained to her that it was because her parents were Jewish and that she would learn about it now when she started going to Sunday school in a few months, and afterwards when she grew up she could decide if she wanted to go on being Jewish or not.
A few months later, their daughter had their first Sunday school lesson, and the teacher taught all about how Abraham came out of Ur of the Chaldees and eventually went to Canaan. When she got home, her parents asked her what she had learned at Sunday school, and she was like, "If I don't want to, I don't have to follow my parents' gods!"
