We were punitive from the beginning. Dobson when they were young, and then we were introduced to the Pearls but that didn't last long. However the spanking did. Looking back I can see where God began to plant the seeds that led us to GBD. The nursery directors gentle approach at our old church,a mom of many online that chatted with me for hours and answered endless questions and then searching for articles on GBD I found GCM. My search also came out of a need/desire to find something other than spanking because I was seeing myself leaning waaaay too close to the abusive side. So, I praise God for leading me here.

As for sharing with others, I would say I have shared with my sister but carefully. i am finding that I need to take back advice I had given her a few years ago. Plus we are from the south and like bananabug said in most arenas spanking=Godly. I don't live there anymore but my sis does. So, I share when she asks and at times when she doesn't, but always carefully.
