The reason is that the child will likely grow up being bullied and
with a hardened heart instead of a loving heart. So for any method
you apply and you find out such negative trait in them, please stop
and try another thing even giving a gift is a form of discipline
depending on how you channel it. Discipline is like a doctor
resetting a particular bone dislocation so they needs to be careful if
not they will totally destroy it. So is a behavioral dislocation that
parents as a doctor trying to correct or reset because it is a thing of the
mind, so also you need to be careful. Learn to reward, praise, and
appreciate a child not just because of a good grade in school but for
their good moral behavior. This help to uplift their spirit in doing
well, it boosts their ego and morale to do the right thing. In the same
way, they struggle to meet up with good grades in school so that they
will gain your reward or be on your good book so also they will
definitely do the same to remain obedient and save you the stress of
shouting or counting three.
Parents have been given the privilege of being stewards of their
children's lives for a very short time but the teaching and training
they provide is eternal. Also, we are to give account of that child
before God just like ELI in 1 Sam 3. Notice that Eli was faithfully
discharging his duty as the priest and the hand of God was upon him
yet for his children's failure, God blamed him for it. Same with us
parents or Guardian today, the Lord will hold you responsible for the
upbringing of your children, not the Witch or Wizard or Your
Enemies when you have not done your part both mentally,
academically, spiritually and otherwise.
