When parents disagree about children questioning faith

My teenage daughter is asking hard questions about our family's faith that I don't have good answers for, and my husband thinks I should just tell her to have faith while I think her questions are actually sacred, and we're realizing we never talked about what happens when our kids outgrow simple answers.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Two people who share responsibility for a young person's spiritual formation discover they have different understandings of what faithful parenting requires.
