I think you are right, and I find the thought of raising someone with the intent to keep them ignorant is gross.
As a teacher, one could not bring up the subject, but one could encourage critical thinking.
If I had the opportunity, but with these constraints I would say:
“How do you know they are bad (or X opinion)? The Church thought Galileio was wrong about the sun being in the center of the solar system, and scientists thout Harlen Bretz’s theory about the Missoula floods sounded too biblical. Anyone can be wrong; so it is important to gather information and decide for yourself.”
And yes, I believe a child would understand the point, even if they don’t get the references.












Walking some home with their consent (or consent of their guardian) is not a crime.
Following someone home is stalking.
