When it comes to discipline, some parents need to change their methods. However, Ray Bradbury thinks that discipline is very important. In “The Veldt,” he shows the dangers of spoiling when Wendy and Peter start depending on the nursery and all of the various machines throughout the house.

Later on in the story, Peter says “That sounds dreadful!
