Making them go through something awful as the only way to learn?

Gee now that sounds familiar in this context. Perhaps it'll work great!

Shaming doesn't accomplish that.
They're often backed by... entire religions that claim they're unquestionably doing the right thing in trying to save the children from eternal hell.

If only life were so simple in trying to make people feel ashamed...

Those religions should be banned and prosecuted too then.
That is not a reason to give up though.
