No, what you've established is that they wont misbehave if you capture their attention and essentially distract them, rather than facing the issue of misbehaving.
Like you said, children learn from their parents. If you're teaching your child that the way to solve your problems is to just think/talk/focus on something else and the problem will go away, well then you're just blind.
