Hi Dan

Though we never pushed it on them, both our children consider themselves 
Buddhist - and they both seem to be taking it seriously enough to make it part 
of their careers. Earlier this year my son graduated from SOAS where he studied 
Tibetan and Buddhism and he is now doing an MA. My daughter is studying Art 
History specialising in Asian & Buddhist Art. Although they were brought up in 
the UK, mom is a Tibetan - so only one parent is a "convert"
