Children learn by your example, not what you tell them. Actions speak louder than words.
I once had an LP smashed up as a punishment for being naughty. My Dad had bought it as a Christmas present. He was away at sea, when it happened.
I was extremely upset, it didn't teach me to behave, in fact it taught me how to be resentful.
Silly woman.
