I personally believe that the stronger fathering and mothering skills parents have, the more firmly the children are going to hold to their religious upbringing. Conversely, the poorer their skills in maintaining a loyal and strict upbringing without hypocrisy the more likely the children will be to seek what their upbringing lacked in those areas elsewhere.
