I agree with you and I'd do the same if I had family that baptized children,
but apparently the OP does not, and all his tags were baptismal (birth
group) tags.

have to agree with Donald on that one. This is one reason I don't group
tags in reports. Sorry but this is one area, where TMG makes assumptions
instead of using the tag sentence.>

I make a strange assumption myself, that all children are actually born
before they can be baptized. Therefore, I assign them a birth tag with a
sort date preceding the baptismal date. The actual date and place may
not be known.
