Teaching your children that evolution doesn't explain human origins is not child abuse. It will probably have zero practical impact on how a child's life turns out. Once they're of age, they can live life as they please and believe what they want.

I can agree that making sure children can read, write, and do some amount of math is fundamental to them being able to succeed as adults. But I'm skeptical of any attempts to make sure that children are "integrated" into society.

I have a four year old daughter. There is no way you're going to convince me that putting her in an environment where girls are pressured into sending nude photos to boys is good for her. I'm sure there are things which can be done to mitigate these risks, but I like to play games where the odds are in my (and my daughter's) favor.
