Muslims do not encourage their children not to like Christians. Christians and Jews are people of the book as mentioned in the Quran and the people closer to Muslims are Christians as mentioned in the Quran.

Why jews are enemies of Islam and Muslims?
Answer 1 Jews do not have the same beliefs in terms of religion. They tend to be hostile towards each other.Answer 2Muslims don't consider Jews enemies. Muslims believe in their holy book (Torah) and their prophet (Moses; peace be upon him). Muslims consider Jews as "people of the book". There are still many Jews residing and living in many Islamic countries without any discrimination or enmity. Quran; Muslims holy book; calls Muslims to tolerant, kind, and peaceful when dealing with non Muslims so far those non Muslims don't drive Muslims out of their homes or prevent them from practicing their religion rituals.However, many Muslims may consider Israelis as enemies because of the discord with the Palestinians.
Was Muhammad visited by a demon and not Gabriel?
Muslims believe he was visited by the angel Gabriel. Non-Muslims generally believe he wasn't visited by anything at all. _________________________________________________________ Prophet Muhammad was visited by the Angel Gabriel (or Jibril). Even the Jews and Christians who accompanied the prophet were convinced that the Angel Gabriel was visiting the prophet and they got the evidences of this truth. Who are denying this fact can refer to the proofs that Quran is God words revealed to the prophet through the angel Gabriel. One of the basic proofs is the scientific miracles that are mentioned in Quran scientific verses and their scientific validity were only proved recently and after Quran revelation with 1400 years. Even presently, not all non Muslims deny these facts.
Were Muslims afraid of Jews?
No, I don't think most Muslims were afraid of Jews. But Muslims were certainly puzzled and frustrated by the refusal of most Jews to convert to Islam. Muslims sincerely believed they had the true religion, and they could not understand why Jews did not accept the teachings of the Prophet Muhammad. This was similar to the reaction of the Christians in their early days-- they too believed they had the true religion and could not understand why most Jews did not accept Jesus as the messiah.These days, sad to say, many Muslims are taught negative stereotypes about Jews (some based on the situation in Israel and Palestine, some based on certain verses from the Qur'an that seem to say Jews are devious or untrustworthy), while in other cases, such as in pluralistic societies like the United States, Jews and Muslims generally get along well and respect each other's religions.
