But what does that teach a child....how do they learn lessons about life. If they don't learn these lessons when they are young, then they grow up not always knowing the right thing to do and they are the same ones that grow up and sue e'one over something that just takes a little common sense. Ok, I get the point, you don't think they should be punished for an accident. I don't agree with that. I've seen kids that don't get punished for anything like that.....they are also the kids I don't like b/c in my own personal experience, those are the kids that as they get older, think they can get away with anything if they didn't do it on purpose.

So a kid can do anything accidentally, no matter how bad it is and not be punished? Guess it makes me a bad mother when my kids accidentally do something that hurts themselves or someone else and I punish them for it.

you wanna see my arms and see the scars from punishments that were dished out to me for accidents?   you think that made me less clumsy?  nope    it still all comes down to intent.  and if a child didnt intend it then to punish them is wrong
