Another reason in favor of strict discipline in righting kids towards desired behavior is to shun kids away from social evils. Nowadays, such influence from peer pressure and unwanted temptations can lure kids into a life of darkness. It should be noted, however, that there exists so-called generation gap which somehow hampers mutual understanding between parents and kids. The appearance of stern discipline is another catalyst for deteriorating the relation and thereby dispelling kids away from parental clout. Sooner and later, kids might find their source of consolation in the gang of friends who are at the mercy of drugs, alcohol. If it were true, parents would lose their kids already.
Equally important, discipline is shown as the effective way to build a lawful society where each citizen is responsible for every wrong action.
