My point being - If you can teach a DOG to be silent on command, you should be able to teach your children.
I guess I have a pretty strong will. When I was a child if I was given a command I would question it (and this was back when whuppins were administered). No matter what punishment was doled out I would be more determined than ever to rebel. I've always hated being told what to do and to conform.
