At a daycare that had a religious title. Something like God's Green Acres daycare. No biggie, everything around that area had some stupid religious title. Amish and Mennonite country.

But......they then started preaching god to my children. We took them out of the daycare.

Yeah, sometimes you have to put up with superstitious nonsense to get the services you need but you don't want some ignorant religious mumbojumbo being performed over your kids in order to get the services.

Yeah baptism means nothing but it is kind of scary to the kids and pushes them closer to accepting the imaginary ideas of religion.
