Having to pay ten gold pieces was probably the hardest sentence for him because that meant that he had to acknowledge to himself what he did and that with what he had to pay now, he easily could have obtained what he wanted in the first place. He tried to avoid looking at himself in the mirror because sometimes that's the hardest thing to do... Love, Vicky Hello to you too Ivan He wanted everything but didn’t want to pay for it, now he had to pay everything and more and gets nothing.

This is truly enlightening. More often than not, people tend to find other ways to make up for the wrong that was done instead of facing it and taking responsibility.

Children need love even when they misbehave, because this may be a form of reaching out, they may be acting out of fear. But they also need discipline; the main purpose of raising children is to create fully functional and contributing citizens of tomorrow. A harden criminal needs to suffer the consequences of his/her actions or else society will become a total chaos. That doesn't mean we dehumanize them, or that they don't deserve love, but love alone will not reform the criminal. Punishment even in small children sends the correct message, you can't operate outside the norms of society (or in case of children outside the norm of the family) unless of course you leave in an unjust society then you may act against the establishment for what you believe is right, but this would not be without consequences. When you choose the behavior, you choose the consequences and there will always be consequences. It's the law of physics "for every action there an equal (in force) and opposite (in direction), reaction."
