Rudeboy ...God forbid that people actually use the Bible as a standard of behavior. Is that what repulses you? Proverbs 22:6

“Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it.”

No, not comfortable with people who throw Scripture in my face . . . but I would love to hear how Proverbs 22:6 does not apply to the contrary argument here.

Which was my argument all along: it appears that the kid learned his lesson. Now someone is quoting the Bible to tell me he did not. Fascinating.

The Bible also teaches about hesed. "He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the LORD require of you but to do justice, and to love hesed, and to walk humbly with your God?"
