Lead by Example to Deter Unwanted Behavior

Parents often focus on rules, punishments, and close supervision to deter their kids from unwanted behaviors, but the most powerful deterrent lies in the parents' own actions. Plutarch emphasizes that fathers, especially, deter their children from disgraceful deeds by being a model of proper behavior. While children may not fully comprehend verbal explanations, they keenly observe and understand the actions and values demonstrated by their parents.
