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.
Well, I'm a Baptist in the South. Spanking = Godly here.
All I have to say is that can not be more true.........until I found this site, I honestly believed the only other option was to have no discipline and have you kids run wild.
It was only by the grace of God that I found it, I sure wasn't looking for gentle anything, honestly I don't even know why I followed this link from the Babycenter website in the first place. ????
I have been pretty hush hush about the "no spanking" change, my one friend that I have told responded with "OH MY GOODNESS".........I think family and friends are really going to freak when I tell them we don't have time outs anymore either. I would like to share this site or books that I have foundout about from ya'll with people though and let them learn on their own, at least until I get a handle on it
