When families split over children questioning inherited faith

Our family has been attending the same church for three generations but my teenage kids are asking questions that make the adults uncomfortable and some relatives think we should just tell them to have faith while others think we should let them explore. Sunday dinners have become minefields and I can feel our family fracturing along generational lines.
