Nope. Wrong is wrong. It is wrong to punish a child for anything
that is not criminal, that would be his right to do is he were an
adult, namely any circumstance in which you want to control a
child's actions.
I won't quote your whole message, but I find your faith in your own
infallibility both obnoxious and insulting - especially when you try to tell
me I'm wrong about my own life just because my reactions don't fit your
prejudice. That reflects a degree of prejudice that would probably make a
brick wall easier to have an intelligent debate with. I doubt that you
would be any more likely than a wall to even consider changing your mind,
and at least a wall wouldn't insult me along the way.
