At the end of the day, all ANY of us have for ANYTHING in which to hope is God's Word of promise. So, Christian parents are obligated to hope in God's promise to save their child.

It seems to me, the Reformed position is that parents are not to doubt the election of their children, nor assume the election of their children, but simply, as Rev Buchanan states, hope in the promises of God.
I also think Rev Buchanan asks a good question. Waiting for an answer.
