I totally disagree with all your statements in this article and to be quite honest, the examples mentioned in the beginning are just ridiculous....I was already quite sure in the middle of the article, that this might end up with the BIBLE waiving, and I was right. Relaxed discipline has negative effects??? So what do you suggest???? Going back to the MIddle Ages with hitting, spanking, whipping and torturing???? Is this your hidden AGENDA between the lines??? Learn about scientific facts in regard to DEVELOPMENTAL PSYCHOLOGY, instead of posting such pathetic articles.
Is there a better way?
Yes, there is ....Protection of all children to not be exposed to people with such a mindset, at all!!!!!
Everyone has the right of choice. Your choice is different from others. I never mention whipping, spanking or torturing a child and there is no where in the bible that talks about that. Training up a child does not mean you have to do everything a child want. Stick to your own way if you want don't come here and spoil all the fun.
