When adult children choose different spiritual paths than their parents

My adult children have all chosen different spiritual paths than how they were raised and family gatherings feel awkward now because we don't know how to honor each other's beliefs or if we should just avoid the topic altogether. What used to connect us now feels like a minefield and I miss the ease we used to have.

What we've seen

The spiritual autonomy we hope to give our children sometimes returns as a loneliness we never anticipated.
