Pro-social absorption: Why children don't need discipline

Many parents think they need to discipline their children. This is a common myth that we need to control children in order to "make them better". The fact of the matter is that children learn through absorption of facts, including moral facts.

And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.
