It's not even a slap on the wrist.

Yeah exactly. It's a scolding. Something certain types have learned to ignore in their teens.

My 6-year old is way ahead of the game then.

Sorry for unsolicited advice, but:

It's usually about consequences. At that age, they react to actions much more than to words.

And more generally, they need to learn that words have meaning, too. There's way too many parents who just lazily shout "KEVIIIN, STOP THAT!" without any sort of follow-up. Not saying you do that though.
