so if we are all born with free will. and it is given to us by God.
How many of you give your children the choice of weather or not they go to church?
is making them go to church a violation of their free will?
this is obviously intended for our christian friends.
but for every body else.

So many questions you confused me, I think you were talking about Christian evolved monkeys with free will or something

First one, yes we have free will. The Bible also instructs us to train up a child in the way he/she should go. Children should be instructed and guided, just like we would not let them have the choice to wear a bathing suit in the middle of an ice storm. Common sense. I think when children are of age, they can choose to search and learn about other religions and decide if they do not want to go to church. But as long as I am looking after them and guiding them, I will do so as I see fit.
Two, evolution isn't true. Every 'fact' about evolution ever presented has been proved by esteemed scientists to be false, fradulent or speculation. Just do the research. The only reason the evolution THEORY, (cause that's all it really is) still perpetuates is because they have not yet come up with a better answer and refuse to use creation. Alot of scientists do not like the idea that someday they will have to answer to someone and so they try to reason their way out of it.

Monkeys and Humans have common ancestors. We did not directly derive from monkeys.
And you are right, about the parents not giving their children free will if they make them go to church. But kids have no free will anyway, because their parents tell them what to do in most situations.

Philosophical free will is not theological free will. And, free will is not disputed among the major theologies of Christianity. Therefore making my child go to church is not a violation of any free will doctrine.

Yes, it is a violation of their free will.
But it is also a violation of the duties of parenthood.
God puts people in a catch 22 again.
Is it the fault of either parent or child?

as long as our children are under our care, we as parents have the God given responsibility to teach them right from wrong. Once they become of age, then they have that choice to remain in the teachings or find their own.
Stopping them cross on a busy street is not oppressing their freewill.
