IMO Kids are not the physical property of parents, meaning that there is a limit to what we can allow parents to do to their kids. This includes the things which with we fiill the heads of kids. Kids as "adults under construction" should have the right to get an education that fully prepares 'm for adult responsibilities in society and that enables them as much as possible for independent critical examination of adult questions and notions. Parents can and must be complaisant on those issues.
That's none of your damn business, just like it would be none of his business if he asked you that. It's the same type of crap you abhor in theists, and you somehow have the audacity to still call the kettle black under the guise of personal opinion.
So, though I think you're right in saying that critique must not lead to undiluded preaching, I also think that education is an issue that isn't free from outside scrutiny.
