For example, you might say: 'My son, we were not born to hurt each other. This will harm you, not me.' Show him clearly that this is true. Bees don't attack their own kind, and neither do other creatures that live together naturally. But you must do this gently, without mocking or lecturing. Speak with kindness, not harsh words. Don't do it to show off or impress the people watching. Do it so that only he can hear, even if others are around.
As for example; My son, we were not born for this, to hurt and annoy one another; it will be thy hurt not mine, my son: and so to show him forcibly and fully, that it is so in very deed: and that neither bees do it one to another, nor any other creatures that are naturally sociable. But this thou must do, not scoffingly, not by way of exprobation, but tenderly without any harshness of words. Neither must thou do it by way of exercise, or ostentation, that they that are by and hear thee, may admire thee: but so always that nobody be privy to it, but himself alone: yea, though there be more present at the same time.
