They just think of it as the good kind of indoctrination. Whereas you might prefer to raise a kid to be autonomous and questioning. They just think rule-following and humble is the way to go. (Of course I agree with you, but they don't.)
Does indoctrination carry negative connotations to the Christian ear? I never knew that if it did. Clearly there are good forms of indoctrination and I did not come out and say that theirs was bad, merely that it was a question I thought worth discussing.
