@ Rose: yeah XD and it also taught us the value of snitching but since most of it was done by my brother, my parents soon was able to tell when he was lying. I think that we kinda grew out of our bad behaviors after a while. It just takes time, you can't expect a kid to understand that until they are ready to .

@ Duchess: I only say it doesnt work because I am using my family versus my cousins family for example.My father used violent methods towards us as children until DSS came and threatened to take us away. Now I think because of those time when we were little my sister is a very violent person and she can't keep a job because she always ends up in a fight over the littlest things. She's been to anger management and they have told her its all the rage from not being able to fight back as a child. Where as my cousin is a used to be a spoiled brat but she is growing out of it. Her parents simply took her things away, explaining why she did wrong and how she isn't to do it again. She also has the responsibility of taking care of her little sister. Which in a small way made her realize the world isn't about her.
