It's the obvious next stage though, isn't it. Like raising hounds, or sons. You must never allow them an inch, especially during their formative years. It's impossible to un-train bad habits and you can never get that time back and do the thing over again. You must never presume that common sense will prevail in the end as, for them, there is no such thing.

Not everybody will come to their senses, as you apparently did, B. Most people are simple stupid and, or, weak.
