Yes.
By the way, Catholics baptize, not christen, children.
With love in Christ.

They say something about raising the child with God in their lives, but no, they don't specifically say anything about raising the child Catholic. I think it is assumed, though, on the part of the priest and participants in the ceremony that the child will be raised in the Catholic church. (I was raised Catholic and for every baptism in our family, nothing was specifically mentioned.)

Yes, and it is also talked about how the godparents need to assist in raising the child catholic.

yes - when your baby is baptized in the Catholic Church, it is specifically mentioned that you (the parents) will raise your child in the Catholic faith

Christening - Christian
Baby Baptism - Catholic
If you baptise your baby, the answer would be yes.
If you Christen your baby, then no.

Very much a huge yes, but remember you are only agreeing to a mans words, not Gods words when inside that particular way of life.
Promises to men are made with words, promises to God are made in the heart.

Yes You make a promise to raise your child in the faith and the Godparents promise to help you and to see that you hold to that promise.

Even if there is...and you want to change your denomination, you can.
You can also have your child dedicated in another Church.
Grace to you and God Bless!
