Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating:  out of 5 stars - Spanking an eight-month old?
The author advocates spanking babies as young as eight months old. I defy anyone to find a Bibilical justification for that. An eight-month-old baby, needless to say for most of us but apparently necessary to say for those of the author's ilk, is not even close to the age of reason. It is therefore child abuse, not discipline. And certainly not Godly discipline.



Rating:  out of 5 stars - Don't buy this
This book was highly recommended and so our christian Mom's group chose to read this. The basic idea could have been summed up in a simple brochure, the rest belonged in the garbage where our books ended up! Tim Kimmel's Grace Based Parenting is so much better, more loving, more practical. I hope others choose Tim Kimmel's book instead of Tedd Tripp's!



Rating:  out of 5 stars - Excellent book - even those who don't spank can glean much

Rating:  out of 5 stars - A Proper View Of Things
The critical reviews of this book reflect why this book is so necessary to read. So many people object to what Tripp says in this book because they hold a high view of man and a low view of God which is not Biblical. When we rightly see man's fallen sinful condition, then we will comprehend the battle that we are in for the souls of our children(whether you want to acknowledge it or not). Come to the passages in the Bible with the proper views of God & man and you will come away with the same ... Read More



Rating:  out of 5 stars - How about a balanced review?
I read this book because it seems to have such a polarizing effect on those who read it. Wow. Either this is a one-stop parenting book, or it's a license to abuse children written by a nut! There's no in-between, is there!

Well, yes there is. I'll give this book a solid three stars, and here's why, from a free thinking Christian perspective (I'd like to think).

First of all, contrary to some of the more hysterical one-star reviewers, experiencing a few moments of sting ... Read More
