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 Did anyone see this?

Just wondering what everyone else thinks of this article.

http:// www. nogreaterjoy. org/index.php?id=25&backPID=2&tt_news=230

It's kinda scary, honestly b4 I would have been happy, not so much now
I feel awful that this is going to spread even farther.

Just wondering........

In Christ

I wonder how she'd translate that awful bit about hosing off a 3 year old with cold water on a chilly fall day to facilitate toilet training. Whatever that's about.

I wish I'd had the translating job. I could put the whole book into one word, but it's probably not a word I should post here.

It's in Russian, too.

*sigh*

As if a society that has leftover problems from Communism (children are valued, yet many children end up in orphanages or on the streets, alcoholism is rampant) needs Christians to endorse child beating.

could you put some spaces in that link you posted so it doesn't directly take us there? We try not to directly link to any Pearl stuff.
