Stupid, dangerous and disrespectful things dont require pain to outgrow.

What makes you elitist is the way you shoot people down who don't agree with your views of the world. YOU believe there's never a good reason. Good for you. Others do. Its not about having the ability to outsmart a toddler, its about being able to make things clear to the mentality of a toddler... which lets face it... is not very high yet. Calmly saying "Johnny, please don't cause a scene in the store, I simply can't get you that candy because its unhealthy and could damage your teeth..." is going to do sweet beggar all. Stupid, dangerous and disrespectful things require correction to outgrow. Whatever correction that might be (barring abusive violence) is up to the parent.
Clearly you needed a reminder on the definition of dominance because you jumped to ridiculous and idiotic concluions.
