IMO, the objective should be to teach the kids that their actions can have serious consequences that can cost them their lives or freedom. So, the aim should be to teach them to make rational decisions but to give them the freedom to make those decisions, depending on their age.
Some of the best advice parents can give their children on a repetitive basis is found in Proverbs 1:10-19 https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=proverbs%201%3A10-19&version=ERV
And then discuss what bad things happen to other kids when they make bad decisions. Such as using drugs, driving recklessly, having unprotected sex, etc. Show them the homeless and point out that they could end up like that if they don't get a good education and develop job skills. And then have them pick out their casket and write their obituary.
But teach then that their future depends on them making the proper decisions on their own and that you can't make them for them. Their lives are their own reponsibility.

@Diotrephes even parents need discipline that their actions have serious consequences.. but they just fvck around to produce serious consequences and then punish the consequence in the name of disciplining !
Is there any proverb for children to give best advice to their parents?
