Parenting by The Book: Biblical Wisdom for Raising Your Child
Picture respectful, responsible, obedient children who entertain themselves without television or video games, do their own homework, and have impeccable manners. A pie-in-the-sky fantasy? Not so, says family psychologist and bestselling author John Rosemond. Any parent who so desires can grow children who fit that description — happy, emotionally healthy children who honor their parents and their families with good behavior and do their best in school.In the 1960s, American parents stopped listening to their elders when it came to child rearing and began listening instead to professional experts.

The author of this book is horribly wrong. A Quote from his book:
p.216 Rosemond says:
“The usual anti-spanking argument consists of three equally misleading assertions:
1. Spankings are likely to escalate into child abuse.
2. Spankings teach children that it’s okay to hit people who upset you.
3. There is always an alternative to spanking.
Not one of these claims is grounded in solid science or even good anecdotal evidence.”
Spanking doesn’t ‘escalate’ to child abuse, spanking IS child abuse, and often does go beyond just spanking.
Spanking DOES teach children it is okay to hit people who upset you and that it is how you deal with anger.
There are many many alternatives to spanking. I know because I and MANY other mothers and fathers have never spanked their child. It does NOT need to be done and is a bad decision.
PLEASE do not purchase this book. The author is ignoring YEARS of studies proving him wrong.

A customer of mine was reading this book and was telling me things about it and it sounded good. I just started reading it, I’m enjoying reading it.

This is the best book I have ever read on parenting. It is down to earth and just makes sense.

By reading following quote you can see how distorted and dysfunctional the book is – sick, cruel and pure child abuse:
“With toddlers, there are certainly times when a swift pop or two to
the rear, without a prior conversation or even so much as a warning,
will be appropriate.” p.220
By hitting another human being you will completely remove the actual teaching experience – communication!
Put parents who hit children in jail – NO CHILD SHOULD EVER BE HIT!
Parents have no right to hit another human being.
