so her expressed decision at the age of 4 to be baptized was an informed decision?
Did you teach her about other world religions and other Christian traditions and how she could join those instead of being baptized? Certainly you did not.
How many people even remember their 8 year old baptisms?
I vaguely remember mine, but I remember nothing of the confirmation.
