I wasn't christened, and don't have godparents. So I don't really know what it entails. Things I know about godparents mostly come from girlsown, where they are good sources of postal orders, random items during rationing, and unexpected school fees. Someone also once told me that in France the godmother (marraine) buys her goddaughter's wedding dress for her. However, I have become a humanist godparent to some excellent children, so I would like some advice.

1) Did/do you have godparents? What did they do for/with you when you were growing up? What would you have liked from them?

2) Are you a godparent yourself? What do you do with/for your godchildren? Do you wish it was different?

3) Have you chosen godparents/equivalent for your own children? What did you expect from the godparents? Did it pan out that way?

I already know my role will involve playing board games a great deal, but it feels like that is not the sole purpose.
