I grew up in a pretty conservative family in which everyone was Christian (except for an uncle whom I rarely saw) and I'm agnostic now, leaning atheist. I'm still sorting out all the cognitive dissonance resulting from that - there is a lot about Christianity that is very good, in the deepest sense of the word, and walking away from it is hard. But I know that wherever I eventually land, it will be my own decision, not my parents'.
