What a great discussion.
Thank you all for your thought-provoking posts.
I just wanted to add one more thing. We don't and cannot eliminate ALL the temptations that our children/babies have. Even if we try to eliminate as many as possible, there are always going to be a few things that we cannot remove. God only put one "temptation" (if that's what you want to call the tree) in the garden full of other good choices. The Pearls want us to put one temptation in front of our babies (with no other appealing alternatives). I specifically remember reading his description of how he got his children to learn the word "hot."
