Set a good example as parents, since the most convincing argument that a girl can become a computer coder is that her mother is one.

I'm not going to get in to an argument with anyone about the relative merits of Judaism and Christianity, and what it means for a Jewish kid to be a Christian - I'm just not interested in that argument.
