Oh c'mon, you're being hyper-technical. If you'd like, I can edit the sentence to say "by teaching them right/wrong, they'll stay out of these situations" and the meaning is exactly the same.
You're hoping that your teaching will give them the tools to keep
themselves out of bad situations.
Are you really sitting here trying to argue that you don't teach your kids in the hopes that they will make the proper decisions in life or are you just getting a kick out of being obtuse?
