That article doesn't support your claim that this parenting style doesn't work, if anything, it refutes it:

> Nunavut has the highest per-capita murder rate in the country, but statistics can be misleading.

> Nunavut is in line with the national Homicide Survey: a large percentage of murders are committed when the assailant is under the influence of alcohol.

> if you took another area similar in housing shortages and alcoholism, you would have a similar crime rate.

> "It's a little unfair to look at Nunavut and the crime rate that it has and sort of assume that it's all Nunavut's fault," he said.

The geographic and economic uniqueness of Nunavut are gigantic uncontrolled variables in your assertion that the cultural correlation is causation.
