I don't think I can ever let my parents know I'm an atheist and with that seems to go my chance of having kids.

Which got me curious: can any irreligious people on here who have kids while having religious parents share what thats like?

Would love to hear your stories or thoughts on this in general.

I guess you just live in a very different world than me. I would never let my parents dictate my life like that. They either accept me for who I am or they don't get to be part of my life. I would also never try to dictate life for my own kids like that when they are adult human beings.
