WASHINGTON (RNS)—Religion was an important topic of conversation between mothers and their children during the pandemic, according to an annual “State of Motherhood” survey from Motherly, a website focused on millennial motherhood.
The report, released earlier this month, showed that some 31 percent of mothers said they had discussed religious issues with their children last year. This trailed only gender equality (33 percent) and racism (46 percent) as the most discussed issue between children and their parents in 2020.
“Every family has different religious beliefs and differing ideas about how to pass those concepts along to their kids,” said Liz Tenety, a co-founder of Motherly.
