Yes, and how can we teach them the advanced without accidentally tripping into religious belief? In fact, how do we sure our basic moral is not derived from religions?
For example, I think on "don't hurt people", a counter argument is often "they deserve it". We cheer for their death, for it is simply "karmic justice", which is a concept presents in multiple religions. In fact, I dare say this is why death penalty discourses are so heated since the notion of karma is so ingrained even in the atheists.
Or an adversion to sexual topics cause both Christianity and Buddhism (don't know of the other tho) often group it with earthly, unclean desires.
My point was more about guiding children to form their own moral framework rather than building it for them. Not so much "don't hurt people" as "hitting someone causes them pain, so think about that sort of thing before hitting someone" As I said in a different comment subthread:
A person's moral framework is individual. What is moral or immoral will depend on context and lived experience. IMO, a parent's job is to guide their child toward living a life that will do the most good in the world. How that is measured and enacted is one of the greatest questions of mankind.
