The guy that peed on the fence is now fully aware of the results of doing so. He knows for certain that he doesn’t want to do it again.
The guy that read about it or watched it happen to someone else cannot claim to have experienced the outcome.
If you tell your kid not to touch the stove, he knows it’s hot. But he will only make the connection once he touches it. After that, he won’t touch it again.
Put up electric fence around yard to keep the cattle out and the dogs in. First thing my male dog did was pee on it. He was running so fast that he hit the gate and popped it. Found him half mile down the road. Never did it again.
Nuttin’ like direct experience to teach ya!
