Today, in the car, after picking up my 16 year old son from school, he told me that he will not be attending church this Sunday. Shocked and confused, I asked him why he would say such a horrible thing, and he said it's because he doesn't believe in God anymore. Apparently a child at his school has been going around telling the other children that God is not real, apparently the child is an “atheist”. I asked my son why he would believe such a horrible thing and he said “because there’s no proof that God exists.” I told him that the proof is everywhere, I told him that the proof is in the bible, yet he still believes the horrible lie that child has been spreading around. I spoke to my husband about this and we’re not sure what we’re going to do, but we’ve called the school and the school district and filed a complaint about the lies that child is spreading. It clearly has something to do with the parents of that child, so I’ve encouraged the principal to contact CPS to look into the situation. As for our son, we’re not sure what we should do. It’s horrible to think that our own son is committing a horrible sin by denying the existence of the lord.

Please help, what do we do?
