Killua is the Zoldyck with the highest potential, why didn't his familly teach
him Nen?

Even as a kid he would definitely be able to learn it, at least the basic
principles.

Why didn't the Zoldyck teach Killua Nen


From the manga it emerges that they wanted to control him for as long as
possible in order to grow him as a killer. By teaching him the nen, thanks to
his potential, he could have rebelled at any time, while, thanks to the fact
that he did not know the nen, they were able to control it much longer.
Eventually they led him to identify himself as a killer. Basically a kind of
brainwashing. Not only that, his brother also used the nen to put a physical /
psychological block directly into his brain. And before he could get rid of
it, Killua had to learn not only the basics of nen. Moreover, the nen provides
a sort of shortcut in protecting against lightning and torture. While his
family wanted his body to adapt to these things regardless of the nen.
Obviously sooner or later they would teach him, also for this reason Killua's
father let him go, he knew that, in any case, he would learn what he needed to
be a killer. In short, Killua was raised as a killer first of all from a
psychological and physical point of view, learning the nen before all of this
would have simply made Killua less strong and, consequently, less suitable to
be a killer.
