that doesn't really mean their children are going to be religious though. There's some new data too from just 2 months ago here showing it's definitely going down at some rate

Religion creates unnecessary division in humanity. Nobody can know what the real truth is and people should be encouraged to be content with that. Maybe one day we'll know for sure but it's not productive to think we know when we don't, we should just work towards finding out. And think about how if some religion is eventually proven to be false, then in reality the people that created that religion are absolutely evil, convincing all those people to have their thoughts controlled by something that isn't even real and threatening them with eternal punishment in the afterlife if they don't think and behave a certain way. And if God is real and he's good then surely he wouldn't mind if you just say you don't know if there's a God. A God that demands constant worship doesn't sound so good
