This is a very interesting post, and I would completely agree if you had left out two words - indoctrinate and premise.
You are making an assumption of negative intent on the part of educators. My daughter is a teacher and I can assure you she has NO negative intent and simply does her best to help children.
The rest of your post I find a much more useful discussion - at what age should things be taught to children. Is knowledge age appropriate? I tend to agree with your position that some things are better taught when a child is better able to use critical thinking to evaluate the information being taught.
