I envision being both: I'll teach the principles as I have faith in them, but act as a foil in questioning and seeking understanding.
How do you teach the gospel to your children? Primary orthodoxy? Or substitute seminary teacher?

There are many factors, but one of the largest is the personality or personage or whatever you want to call it, of the kid himself/herself.
That moment stuck with me, probably didn't stick with most of the kids.
Zulu had many of the same teachers as me, I think he was raised in a little bit more strict manner than me, and he may tend to be slightly more orthodox than me, I don't know. Lots of factors.
