I would hope that their children would try to help them. Jesus Christ bought our salvation and I don't see why people would want to reject him. I love my Lord with all of my heart and I pray that people will find the truth, and THE ONLY TRUTH! Christ is real and so is salvation!

Nothing. When they'll go at a university, God will provide and pay for their courses.
Hmmm... Maybe I'll pay for their English grammar courses, though.

Let them find their own way to logical Atheism.
I doubt you'll find many Atheists who didn't flirt with religion or at least find out about them.
I came to Atheism as a natural conclusion based on evidence or rather, lack thereof.
I remember at seven hearing about the concept of InvisibleSkyGuys and being amazed that adults would believe in such things.
Nothing happened in the intervening years to change my mind.
Children are still beaten and starved.
A real god wouldn't allow the innocent to suffer.

Question them regarding their thought process to confirm the choice is their and they are not being pressured into it.. If I feel they are making the decision of their own accord I accept it.. If I feel they are making the choice based on someone elses will I point that out to them..
My children and I have a very open relationships we are able to communicate well and we value each others opinions.. If I were to point out they were making a choice based on the opinion of others rather than their own opinion they would stop and take a look at it.. Making sure they are making the choice on their own before moving on...
I have always raised my children to make their own choices even when their choices may differ from mine..

If they dont teach the kid athiesm then they probably (as a good parent should) let them pick their own faith and to each his own.
I dont think this is likely though if they talk about it because:
If someone randomly told you the tooth fairy/easter bunny/santa is real, would you believe them? Probably not because you grew up thinking something was only a myth. Its hard to believe in things you have grown to know as fake and have no proof that they existed.

I have a friend who is an aetheist. Her daughter has become a fundementalist Christian. She is fine with her daughters choices. She did smile a little smugly when her daughters minister, in CO Springs, made the national headlines with "unchristian behavior"
My children actually led me to rethink being Catholic. I am now open to all religious beliefs, but probably a "secular humanist."

Our kids have a right to believe whatever they want. I'm not going to be mad if my kid believes differently that I do. I don't share my mom's beliefs, but she's fine with it. To each their own-- it's wrong to force a kid to believe anything.
What would a Christian do if their kid turned Atheist?

Some of them get very,very upset. Others, who have a little common sense, understand that at a certain age, we all have the right to choose for ourselves.
Tolerance and loving your children is the answer here.

I'm agnostic. I have raised my kids to think for themselves and to use their own judgement on things like this. If one of them decided to become a Christian, I would be a hypocrite to oppose their choice. I would support my kids- love them for who they are, no matter what they do or what they believe or don't believe. By the same token, if one of my kids became a Muslim, I'd be just as accepting of their choice. It's THEY'RE choice and I support my kids.

Depends on how accepting thay are. Since most atheisists have a pretty neutral belief system; they are probably okay with it. I suspect though that they might tend to be dissapointed since I'm sure they believe most religions to be somwhat ignorant.
