acceptance
Explanation:
In the sense that has to be forced on their education to be accepted.
''the delicate bite point between confidence and aggression'' is, to me, written in an idiomatic form; according to what I read:
One could think in terms of the parallel between the fish and the fish bate. If the fish is hungry enough it will bite! - ''bite point'' = a isca, PT
It is expressing and stating a point, and that is, a parallel to accept (the teachings) or to revolt against these!
