From YKTTW Working Title: Teach him anger
Kilyle: Shouldn't we have a link to "Teach Him To Lie" (or whatever name we gave it), assuming we have that trope? It's also about teaching nice characters bad habits and calling it a good thing. Also related would be the ending to the book Conrad, in which they teach a perfectly obedient child how to be a little hellion so his makers won't take him back to the factory... but I don't think we have a separate trope for that occurrence.
