I am inclined to disagree with you. It is not always so simple. Some children simply have major mental and social issues that need to be addressed and merely threatening punishment will do no good. Instead, for some children threatening punishment will only make things worse. Counseling and, if absolutely necessary, medications are the only way to deal with such children. I should know. It happened to my younger brother.
