Seth comes in with a broken toy sword. Deborah asks whose it was and he replies: “Hyrum's.”
Deborah tells him, “Hyrum isn't going to be very happy when he finds out.”
Seth replies, “Yeah, he'll kill me. Mom, will you get Hyrum in trouble?"
Deborah asks, "What for? You are the one who broke his sword."
He said, "Well, he was the one about to kill me!"
So we are hypothetically punishing Hyrum before the fact...
