I’ve experienced it – ast the one who’d give that reply, but NEVER to/from ANY actual family. Only those where trying to control/use me for something. So ZERO DAMNED SYMPATHY for that lot.
If you’re going to punish or correct, better begin with “why”. Explain a reason or more , then punish, then redirect into something more fruitful. I know … Orvan will fly without mechanical assist, next.
Punishment for helping out the best you could.
That always goes over well.
Never any longer-term negative consequences.

Twist is certainly on board with your plan, but it does require the explainee to be hearing the explaination!
