Brainwashing may be the wrong word. I'm not sure what you would call teaching children to behave a certain way though. I don't know if you can not 'brainwash' kids. They aren't capable of thinking on their own yet, and you have to teach them something, and whatever you teach them is almost certain to stick for at least the first decade or two of their lives, and most likely remnants of it will remain forever.
Kids are built to be brainwashed. I think maybe we just consider brainwashing nice things into their head as not brainwashing, whereas bad things is brainwashing? I dunno. I just know from my anecdotal observations of watching my brothers/sister/self get raised, and raising a kid of my own, that controlling who they are seems remarkably easy, at least early on.
