Page "Moral Politics (book)" Paragraph 19

* Child development: Children develop self-discipline, self-reliance, and other virtues primarily through rewards and punishment, a system of " tough love ".

Since parents know the difference between right and wrong and children still do not, obedience to the parents is very important.

Moral development basically lasts only as long as childhood ; it's important to get it right the first time, because there is no " second chance ".
