Innocent in the sense that they are incapable of thinking/doing anything logically / rationally or intentionally. Innocent doesn't necessarily mean the one who does good deed. It means someone who is pure and uncorrupted - which babies (until a certain age) are. Aren't neutral people called innocent?

Without any training/guidance (say a child is locked/trapped into a forest without any other human beings) - how do you feel he will grow up? Where will his sense of morality come, and what would it be?

babies are corrupted..why is it that they laugh when they see others suffering

Precisely why good old fashioned cartoons have anvils falling on heads. People being flattened by steam rollers. Faces exploding with bombs etc. Unfortunately, they don't make much of those anymore.

Nah. Sometimes you need to scare them kids to keep 'em on their toes, otherwise they become naughty little things. Of course, in my family, that only applies(d) to my brother ... I'm the oldest and thereby, of course, the favorite ... daddy's angel and mommy's best friend. I am so loved. Just kidding. 😆 But won't lie - as much as my brother gets away with things, there is tons more he doesn't get away with ... and well, sucks for him. All you teenage boys need a spankin' every once in a while. How many times do we have to tell you .... sliding things under your bed is NOT an option! Geez.

P.S. Sarina - No, no, no. No matter how hard you attempt to lure me into a debate on evil babies, I'm not falling for it. :P

Is it good to scare your kids? Like when they don't listen to you, you scare them to get them to do what you want....like saying "I'll call [place scary uncle's name here] if you don't eat your food!"

Does it have a negative effect on the kdis life later on?

We have small families these days and children are increasingly being shielded from the outside world. There is increasing tendency by parents to smoothen it all out for the kids giving little chance for any independent decision making or opportunities to learn from their mistakes. Not a healthy trend at all !
