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.

Default Carole Joy Seid?

Our church is hosting a seminar by this lady - does anyone know anything about her. It seems she usually does homeschooling seminars, but the one we are hosting is about parenting - titled "Let the Children Come to Me".

The website says some things about first time obedience and a happy heart, but that's about it.

Should I be worried?

Well, I haven't heard of her, but "first time obedience and happy heart" raises some major red flags.

I went to her homeschool seminar about seven years ago and loved her. Of course, that was right at the beginning of my paradigm shift. Maybe there was stuff that I didn't notice. I just remember her approach being so fun and relaxed. She seemed to be a gentle soul.

Let us know how it goes.

I probably won't go because it costs $45 and since I don't have any kids anyway....

but.... my DH runs sound and might have to be there so I can always hang out withi him and eavesdrop.

Bumping...thomer, did you get to go?

I am very curious about her stance on discipline, too. Anyone else?

It's not for another couple of weeks. I'll have to look again when the date is.
