Beautiful analyses. I believe that different stage in the life of a child demands different measure or ways of training and discipline.
A child that is not at the age of reasoning (2 to 10 or 11urs) must be disciplined using the cane and deprivation method. And by deprivation method, I mean withholding from him or her what he or she likes.
A child at the age of reasoning (11 above) should be trained by dialogue and chat. At this age, parents must make their children their best friend. Parents must build in their child to have trust in them. Parents must be close to their children. At this stage the cane can not do much and deprivation might just do a little.

You are absolutely right. In fact, I had a good conversation with my children today.
Indeed, we parents must instill confidence in our children to the point where they understand that we are their friends and always want the best for them.
