Why did they boys/girls get tortured by their fathers in ancient rome till they were 6 years old ?

Because, it was their culture, or part of it. boys were raised to be soldiers who were ruthless and who had to fight while the women stayed home, but they had to

It allowed for things to be produced much more quickly and efficiently
