Actually that's not the case. My kids ridicule kids with tattoos. They
see the idiot teenage motorcycle drivers and know that's why they won't be
on one. The rules make sense and they can see that. It's not even a

Evidently you started raising your kids to think rationally as soon as they
were born instead of waiting until they were well into their teens.

Did you manage (as my wife and I did) to never once hit them?

No, they got whacked every once in a while until about age 5.
