There are other ways besides just a lecture. You can put them in educational situations without actually putting them in danger.
All of this said, I know for sure that fighting back helps as a child and I don't necessarily think it's the worst thing in the world if they exchange some blows of their own volition but when it happens, we as adults can't sit back and condone it and laugh about it.
