Its an incredibly hard yet perhaps the old ways of stoning were not all that bad of a way to keep the kids like respectful. I suspect that the only reason stonings were written in the old testament bible so parents were like respected. The stonings were done by your peers, like your son would have to stone one his best friends to death for being like disrespectful to his parents. He would likely be quite respectful no doubt after partaking in such a stoning of one of his best friends. It sounds cruel but actually the father wouldn't likely be doing the stoning.
