What you did was perfectly acceptable and hopefully a good life lesson. I simply can not understand parents who think their children should not be disciplined in any way.
I agree, to many children are not being taught responsibility for their own actions. Children today also have so much they don't appreciate what they have. I feel sorry for them.
Sounds as if the parents need some lessons in parenting.
