The rule is, "You never hit a lady. The moment she throws a punch she is no longer a lady, she is a combatant, and this rule no longer applies."

These christofascists aren't worried about their children being indoctrinated. They're worried about the indoctrination to fear, hatred, intolerance, and self-loathing that they have been given at home and in their "churches" being depeogrammed.
Exposing children to ideas you don't agree with is not indoctrination. Exposing children only to ideas you agree with is the definition of indoctrination.
Every accusation is an admission.
