I would hope good parents would try to minimize this, and raise children who think for themselves as much as possible. If you have good ideas to pass on, you should be able to do so in a reasoned manner, after giving them the tools they need in order to think. Jamming a load of shit up their arse knowing they haven't reached this stage is the problem. I could easily argue religion is not suitable for children anyhow. Trying to compare Jesus to "that will burn your hand" is about as false as an equivalence can get.

But I suppose I'm talking about people who see the world in pretty much the opposite way to me.

Education. Educating parents. It's the most humane way of dealing with stuff.

The old education magic ball.  Who does the educating?  It's still the process of brainwashing others to believe what the one doing the educating believes in.  Gotta get the herd to believe in the same things as determined by the big wigs by whatever means necessary.
What do you believe is the alternative? Letting strangers from the government teach my kids whatever they wish?
Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you
