There's simply no way to enforce this age restriction in any meaningfull way. If you are true to your religion, then you follow it's rules for your behaviour and for that of your family. Ignoring what it may say about child rearing, your child will still be raised under the tenants of your religion because you can do it no other way.
How could you have a double standard for yourself and your kids? Say you do, and you do nothing at all to involve the child in your faith. Kids learn from the people around them and will still be influenced by them.
To me, the only way to do this is to insulate them from all faiths untill legal age (raise them all in a creche under the care of robots?), or to teach them all existing faiths so that upon reaching legal age, they can choose what they like.
What parent would agree to that?
