This actually makes a complete shitload of sense, when put this way.

working-class parents are more likely to spank or beat their children because their main concern is that children obey but they don't give a poo poo if they agree with it or not

middle-class parents are more likely to use deprivation or confinements because their main concern is that children understand why the thing is wrong

these also correlate heavily with their children's likely working environments and the survival skills necessary

what i'm getting from this is that we can tell who grew up poor and who didn't lol

Ya but you left rich people out, is it that rich people are just further down a track prioritizing comprehension over obedience? My guess would be they let their kids do whatever they want but emphasize the importance of appearances, for example acting like a maniac and breaking poo poo at home is fine because we can just buy more poo poo but doing it at a restaurant is wrong

wait did that actually happen in arrested devlopment because i've watched every episode of it and i don't remember any of it

There is an entire running gag i wanna say midseries about how George would teach the kids lessons by hiring that guy with one arm to display the horrific consequences of small transgressions like not leaving a note
