I found this wondrful website that offers free magaziner issues. However, I was concerned for parents who are unfamilar with the magazine who is looking for good parenting magazines.
Their magazine is at the bottom of the parenting magazine page.

The description would convince me to order it if I were not on GCM.

There is usually some 'catch' to getting a free magazine...and it really is not free, so maybe not many people will accaprt the offer.

Wow. They do make it sound really good, don't they? The "child-training" bit would've given me pause even if I hadn't known who they were, but it's really not a red-flag phrase for most people

I'm also hoping there's a catch that will help people to think twice

If anyone feels led to write to the website and warn them about NGJ, they have now been linked to 3 child deaths.

I have some sample letters which have been used for other occasions.

If anyone does write to them, I would be glad to post your letter on my site for others to use.

Since it took my a while to track down his email addy, I went ahead and sent him a short note:

Quote:

I noticed that you are promoting a free subscription to No Greater Joy Magazine. I wanted to let you know that the organization which publishes this magazine has very controversial teachings which have been linked to the deaths of 3 adopted children. It seems that the training which they teach becomes very dangerous in the cases in which it fails to work. I have a link which links to news stories about their book, To Train Up A Child, and how it relates to these deaths. http://whynottrainachild.com/categor...chings/deaths/

You should also check out the teachings on the website to which you link [link removed]. Most people agree that their teachings are abusive no matter how you look at them.

I don't want to post his email addy in a public forum, it doesn't seem right. If anyone wants it, please PM me.
