English term

enforce prompt obedience

English to Spanish Art/Literary Religion 19th century book about Christian mothers
It is certainly the duty of parents to convince their children of the reasonableness and propriety of their requirements. This should be done to instruct them, and to make them acquainted with moral obligation. But there should always be authority sufficient to enforce prompt obedience, whether the child can see the reason of the requirement or not.
