Title: A Violent Way to Raise a Child
Review: I was horrified by this book. I am a Christian who does believe in spanking, but only when all other forms of discipline have failed. The "rod" in the Bible does not necessarily mean "something to spank your child with." I've always thought of it as another word for discipline or correction. Tripp advocates spanking an 8 month old baby. If you do this, all your child will know is that Mommy(or Daddy) hurts her. I agree with other reviewers that spanking for every offense is a lazy way to parent. I do not agree with their outrage over children being sinful from conception. That is clearly stated in the Bible a number of times. If you are looking for good ideas on correcting your children, I suggest you check out "Creative Correction" by Lisa Whelchel. She has a lot of good, non-violent, ways to shepherd your child's heart.
