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 Ezzo Week at Tulip Girl

Many of you know Tulip Girl and enjoy her blog, but for those who are unfamiliar with her, I wanted to share a little heads-up. Every year, TG hosts "Ezzo Week" on her blog to coincide with the GFI (Ezzo's for-profit company) annual conference.

TG has been running Ezzo Week since 2004 and there are a TON of excellent articles in her archives through the years. Lots of great discussion and thoughtful points made for those who are interested in conversing with others about Ezzo's materials.
