Which is seriously not normal. Emotions such as anger and getting upset is normal. Not letting your children develop these and learn to control the anger and use it productively stunts their mental growth. That in of itself is abusive and can cause so many issues as they get older. Can escalate anxiety if a kid already has it, cause depression, etc, by being taught that NORMAL EMOTIONS ARE BAD. And I just don't see how the ppl that follow their brand of Christianity (and im a Christian, but this brand is bananas) don't see that. But I guess it's another way of control. I held a LOT of anger as a kid and teen, even into my early 20s, due to my parent's divorce and abuse. It wasn't until I was near 30 that I learned to control it. But that comes with maturing and letting go and accepting what happened, happened. They're raising kids into emotionally stunted adults.
