Punishing a child with "negative" consequences only reinforces guilt, shame, resentment, blame, anger and hatred.

Conversely: a child will have a better appreciation of "consequences" when they are used as a reward system... To validate and reinforce well-being, self-worth and joy.
A nurturing parent will teach a child that consequences are earned.
Those who use punishment as leverage to induce guilt or shame will only provoke more. Thus, such emotions become powerful tools of war.
