I got all of this information from my dad when I was growing up. Dad wasn't much into sit-down formal talks or lectures. He looked us in the eye and told us how something was to be done and why it was to be done that way. It seemed to us that he was always watching. I remember once my brothers and I were out hunting with our new 4-10s. Somehow dad saw us crossing a fence in an unsafe manner. The moment we got back to the house, our 4-10s went into the hall closet for a week and we never did that ever again.

Nobody is watching the kids these days like they used to do. The kids know this. Worse, they're convinced that they're actually innocent so long as there were no witnesses.
