I'm an atheist and I didn't raise my kids as anything, if they asked I told them what I thought but made no attempt to indoctrinate them in my lack of belief, it wasn't and isn't my place to do that.

FWIW, I've never knowingly met another atheist. Evidently my atheistdar has technical problems of some sort.
