I don't remember if I posted this before I left for vacation and conference,
so I'm putting it in--- please forgive me if it is a replay.  There have been
some recent developments regarding information and positions on the Growing
Families curriculums. I have been sending by private email some documents
that I have on hand, and there is now a new one out that will be very
important for some people. The county of Orange in California received enough
inquiries about these programs in conjunction with child abuse concerns that
they put together a task force to assess the curriculums. They did both a
detailed critique of each curriculum, childbirth through the teenage years,
and then compared them to other "religious" parenting curriculums in a two
page summary chart.  This document has been reproduced and posted on the
following website, and can be downloaded for viewing and printing with Adobe
Acrobat software:  http://www.fix.net./~rprewett  .  On this site you will
also find other articles on Ezzo materials as well as on parenting in
general, and links to other sites for more information as you desire.  Again,
I am happy to help anyone out with more information as well.
