Default Question for Non-Catholics...

Just wondering...

If you had a child, whom you raised in your faith, and then as an adult they decided to convert to Catholicism; would you still support them in their decision, such as attend their confirmation? What would you think? What would you say to them?

I'm in the process of converting from Baptist and I really haven't let my family know yet that I am in the process of doing so(though they know I have been thinking about it)

I guess I'm just frightened because I feel like I'm seperating myself from my family in a way. They won't listen to why I'm doing this, and I'm afraid if I go too far with discussions it will just make them hostile toward me. Right now its a subject thats avoided. I really would like for them to attend my confirmation at Easter, but I'm not real sure how or when I should approach the subject. Any ideas of insight into what may be best is appreciated.

Thanks
