not really but if you want to give your kid the choice of religionthen let them get older and decide.

A New Testament perspective:

Infant baptism is not found in The Bible. What IS in the Bible is Jesus' teaching that religious practices based on the traditions of men rather than scriptural doctrine, are done in vain (Matthew 15:9; Mark 7:7).

Infant baptism is just such a tradition. Though it is presented by some groups as "church doctrine," it is entirely unscriptural. In light of Jesus' teachings, this makes it wrong, and renders the practice wasted effort.

Before anyone was baptized in the New Testament, they had to hear and believe the word, repent of their sins and confess their belief. The efficacy of Christian baptism is in the faith of the believer being joined with the grace of God. Infants are incapable of the prerequisite faith to be suitable subjects for baptism, nor can they do what is required by it.

Colossians 2:11, 12 - In Him you were also circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, by putting off the body of the sins of the flesh, by the circumcision of Christ, buried with Him in baptism, in which you also were raised with Himthrough faith in the working of God, who raised Him from the dead. [NKJV]

Baptism requires a faith-based response to an invitation. Until one can respond for themselves, baptism will do them no good.

It depends on denomination; for example, the Presbyterian church baptise babies so that they can be "washed clean of sin" from a very young age, whereas other denominations, such as the Baptists, baptise adults because they believe in "Believer's Baptism", where you have to have become a Christian and have built your own faith before being baptised.
