I'm gonna guess that last one applies even if they are religious but not the same religion. "Sorry little Buddhist child down the street but my parents tell me I'll go to the same hell you're going to if I spend time with you."

Yeah, i should have specified 'nonchristian.' The fear was exposure to secular norms. I didn't know what sex was, or that I had a vagina, or what swear words were, and so exposure to kids who *did* know what that was was limited, supervised, or forbidden

no caffeine, no hanging out with anyone who had ‘bad’ things in the house (parents smoked, they drank soda at meals, watched too much tv, etc), no 2 piece swimsuits, no makeup, no red nail polish....

I was the heathen that my friend's Baptist parents were terrified of. I was pulled aside and told to back off. I don't drink or do drugs, but I did teach him the word cunt. Also introduced him to Rated R movies. His 'decent' friends were vandalizing shit and breaking into cars.

I credit my Mom's insistence on "No, thank you" (& "Yes, please") to her Texas upraising. I kinda prefer those to "yeah" or "nah" because they're clearer from a toddler's mouth.

Those are not features of a religious upbringing; they are features of an insane upbringing.
