No! Never!
Punishment can never be a Cooperation.
Punishment can make the person think more about the thing for which he is being punished.
If he punished hard, we will do that thing with his full efforts, besides of thinking whether it is good or not.
I Have an example of my Cousin, he was a brilliant student, really he was, I'm admitting it,
but his father was a strict man, he even punished him for getting 99 out of 100, What the fuck man! 99 are the best anyone could think off, but he beats him badly every time and now the boy I'm talking about have left studies.
It is sad but true.
Now he has become mentally sick!
and i'm worried for him :(
