Notable Trials has a update on the Schatz Trial to summarize the case and say that there is no real update.
Abusive by Definition
July 13, 2010 1 Comment
I found this secular blog entry which I found interesting. It links to the Salon Article about the Pearls, discusses it a bit and then goes on to look further at the Blogger’s own observations of how the Pearl’s advice is abusive by definition. She compares it to the well known Cycle of Abuse seen in marriages.
Preparing To Be A Help Meet

I find it odd that Yahoo News has a good review of Debi Pearl’s newest book, Preparing To Be A Help Meet.
You may comment on that article there as well as on the Topix site.
Yahoo did not allow me to submit my comment, probably because it was a link to this site. My concerns about this new book are based on my concerns about the original book Created To Be His Help Meet. I have links to many book reviews of that book which explain the dangerous teachings in that book.
Awful Library Books

The Awful Library Books blog would like to see To Train Up A Child removed from all libraries. So far, nobody in the comments section has approved of the book, but some feel that it should be just removed from the Parenting section and put somewhere else where those who need it for research can access it. I agree. We cannot argue against something without having access to it and we do not want to purchase it.
Anyway, I suggest you check your own public library and direct them to this post. Suggest that they remove this dangerous book from the parenting section to a research section or remove it from circulation.

A Challenge

I generally do not link to non-Christian arguments for the reason that they are rarely of any use to us. They will rarely convince a Christian and I have yet to see a non-Christian which needs convincing.
I am linking to the article below because what I see here is a challenge to Christians to speak out against this teaching. We have been doing just that and I am saddened to see that she has been forced to close her article to comments. I can only image what kind of response she received to cause her to take such a drastic step within 24 hours. I am hoping that she will find this site, as well as TulipGirl’s list of those who are speaking out and the follow up here.
I am also linking to this because I do track mentions of this issue in the Mainstream media.
