Sorry, I didn't proof read myself on this one. Also, I've been Chinese writing an English piece at the time I authored this post.
You're right a out the karma loop. I think my dad did the super cool job. He has always been "letting me know" instead of advising. Basically I've got all the freedom for what I wanted to do when I was young, because he already let me know of the consequences.
I tried to do the same to my kids as my dad did to me, but it seems far less effective to kids these days, because the knowledge I'm trying to pass down contradicts with YouTube 😅 when I try to correct YouTube, the argument from the kids was, "dad, your time doesn't have YouTube" 😅
