        So his teacher essentially makes him talk to himself? One of my main concerns in raising a child would be how to avoid these situations.

        Atheists help with action because thoughts and prayers don't do anything

        My wife does a prayer every evening. I chime in with what I'm grateful for and what I'm hoping for. It's become something I look forward to!

        I'm not religious myself, so my "prayer" doesn't involve God, but it feels like a worthwhile habit (like gratitude journaling).

        Well, you have us outnumbered like 10:1. Look at worldwide charities though... Gates Foundation is still largest in world right?
