Prov.22:6

[6] Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.

It is the responsibility of the parent to raise their child in the Christian faith with lots of firmness and love.

Excellent. I think some parents focus on firmness and don't give enough love. Love could mean respect for independence and a willingness to share beleifs but allow the child to feel he has made his own decision. If the parents don't set a good example, the child will say "where has religion gotten mom and dad?"
