10. Indicate the purpose of the following paragraph:

some parents may say that disciplining a child is not necessary; however, discipline is needed to teach a child right from wrong. By punishing their child, parents are letting the child know that the behavior for which the child is being reprimanded is not acceptable. For example, if the child is at the grocery store with his mother and takes a candy bar without permission, the mother could discipline her child for stealing. This would install the knowledge that stealing is wrong. Or if the child is throwing a temper tantrum at the house for not getting something he or she wants, the mother could chastise her child for incorrect behavior. this would instill the knowledge that uncivil behavior is wrong. By disciplining a child, a parent is teaching a child right from wrong.
