That’s a good point about children (and puberty, as Crux said); it’s possible (and IMO likely) that some of their terminal values are malleable. But I also agree with what William_Bur said on a sibling thread: issues like racism and segregation are instrumental values, not terminal ones.
I don’t think that’s necessarily true—see for instance Haidt’s work on moral foundations. Plenty of people who opposed interracial marriage framed it as a matter of purity/contamination.
