The main difference between socialization and brainwashing is willingness. In psychology, the study of brainwashing, often referred to as thought reform, falls into the sphere of "social influence." Social influence happens every minute of every day. It's the collection of ways in which people can change other people's attitudes, beliefs and behaviors. (Layton, 2010)

Socialization is taught by people around you with the intent to educate while brainwashing is influencing your decision making against what was learned during socialization.
