As far as telepathy is concerned my son knows it for a fact as we experienced it when he was a boy. No need to tell anything. We still do sometimes, and it is fun, and you cannot possibly explain it away as much as you would like to.
As for God we often have discussions, and he believes in something, just like I do, and we often discuss about it.

As for what parents tell their children about beliefs is none of the business of their teachers. It might be right, it might be wrong, but back off!

The only exception I personally cringe about is Santa. Coming down a chimney for heaven's sake, even if you only have electricity, with the reindeer waiting on the roof. I hope you go around preaching the glaring wrong of that, as much as you preach your brand of atheism.
I don't tell any kids how stupid it is, it is not my right, but I never told my own kids. WE were all the ones to give each other presents.

GG.
