Well, I never thought that teaching a child "might makes right" was a good idea. Time out, no dessert, a lecture, no bedtime story... any of that stuff, and STICKING TO IT instead of relenting when the lower lip comes out (and if the child's up to speech, having THEM repeat back why it's happening) is a much stronger connection between wrongdoing and "don't."
