Unprepared for Parenting (Ezzos, Pearls, Etc.) *Public*Support and information for those affected by the Ezzos, the Pearls, and other punitive and adversarial methods of child-rearing. A public forum. Before posting here, please read this sticky and keep guideline 23 in mind:
23. No posts harshly dissecting parenting moments of others since we desire to humbly cultivate a heart attitude of grace and not judgment towards other mamas. We all struggle at times as parents and have much to learn, and GCM's focus is to provide tools and information for each of us to parent more effectively. Posts voicing some frustration regarding choices made by others can be okay, but it needs to be within the overall context of seeking understanding or ideas for better responses in the future.

A Spanking Paddle
This saddenes me to think how many parents are going to do this and more scarey how many will do it out of anger. Disturbing.
Ran across a website and found this headline.
FREE to Good Homes
Use Lovingly and NEVER in Anger http://www. spare-rods.com/OrderPaddle.html#
[flowermama edited to break the link so that it is not a live link due to posting guideline number 18 which says. . . "No posting live links to sites that violate our statement of parenting beliefs (example: sites that promote CIO or punitive parenting). . . "]
