I just finished reading the Washington Post article on-line (thanks,
Kathy). It seems that no matter how many times the authors' sprinkle
their dogma with suggestions to be reasonable and not be too structured
or inflexible, the *intent* of this curriculum is to encourage a
planned, scheduled, and rewarded system for parents to abuse their
children.
Where do the Ezzo's teach parents about age-appropriate developmental
behaviors? Spank an 18month old for behaving like an 18month old? If
they hit a dog for behaving like a dog you could have them arrested for
cruelty to animals. Who is protecting our children?
(I've just got to stop reading this stuff on weekends!!!)
