Maybe you could point out the benefits of abandonment ,is it the out of sight out of mind theory?
What? When did I advocate abandonment? There is a big difference between abandonment and what I do. I spend all my free time(not at work) with my kids. I agree that time spent with your kids in the woods or on the athletic field is the greatest teacher. But, withholding pleasure time ie. sports/hunting etc is a great motivator when it comes to behavoir problems.
