I heard a comment in church today (by a member...not over the pulpit) about a child's crying for food being indicative of a sinful nature.
Wonder if he'd think an adult going to the refrigerator when he's hungry, is proof of a sinful heart.
Are there any denominations or large church groups that actively promote gentle parenting? My church doesn't usually promote harsh parenting, but neither does it actively refute it or offer a lot of grace-based teaching.
