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 I think im gonna throw up....

and maybe cry too

one of the boards im on is doing a questionairre thing. theres one whos always stood out to me, she's always been very different from me, i could tell, just not sure how totally, could tell she was very detatched from her kids, except for breastfeeding, but i jsut couldn't get it. i found out the question of what has kept you 'sane' raising your kids, for her, it's the book TTUAC (along w/ a couple dobson books). I wanna reply something, but how/what? I really don't think she'd be open at all to gbd, but if i could just get a seed of doubt in there, yk?

How sad...

Maybe you could ask what she specifically likes about the books, to draw out the logic she's using to defend using these methods on her children. Many people start thinking about what they are doing when you have logical arguments for why is doesn't work or why it is unBiblical.
