So why is it...
... That there are so many legalistic, punitive books out there on how to raise your kids - especially in the Christian community? (Although DH points out that similar philosophies can be found in Islamic and Bhuddist teachings.)
Why do so many parents accept the advice? What deep need are parents trying to fulfill by reading/applying the information in these books?
