Not true at all. I have a two kids under 2. At not point am I worried that if I nor one else don't instill in them that stealing is wrong, that they will some how not know it is. Me and my wife are not anxious, worrying omg they're not going to know that stealing is bad unless we, or their school, community etc... instill that in them.
I'm not saying that kids won't intuit that something is wrong as they grow up and their cognitive capacities develop further. I'm saying that toddlers probably might not have that intuition properly developed yet.
