Morality can be taught by a person bonded to a child up to the age of five. After that, it is probably not going to take.
Some people think it is wrong to teach children rules attached to religion.
I don't own a gun. I don't drink or take illegal drugs. I still get angry enough to bite or hit or harm from time to time but there is a shadowy figure in the back of my mind that won't allow it. The figure looks a lot like my mom.

Truth, you can not legislate morality, and both parties need to learn that.
The only thing I would change in your comment is "Some people think it is wrong to teach kids rules". Period.
I don't own a "gun" (I have a air rifle for vermin control), I drink may 1 or 2 small glasses a wine per month, I don't take illegal drugs - I don't feel free room and board for the rest of my life courtesy of the state worth the brief high.
