If you are a parent who has read the Bible, and believes it to be the inerrant Word of God, then this book is for you. The Bible teaches us, in no uncertain terms, that we are to "Train our children up in the way they should go". Biblically, there is use of a "rod" or other implement that is used for spanking. This is NOT hitting or anything even close to it. It is carefully controlled, calm spanking that is issued on the bottom or upper thigh. The Bible promotes this. But, it does not just start or end in spanking. Spanking is a tool God has given us to help us direct our children, but it is not the ONLY tool. It is critical to spend time with your children, getting to know them, by having them close to you (tomato staking), and leading them in paths of righteousness. Love on your kids everyday, all day, by having them near to you. Don't send them off to their rooms, don't send them away to day care, don't send them off to school. Keep them with you and near you where you can see each attitude and problem as it comes up, and lovingly correct, whether through training a different attitude, sending to a corner, or spanking, or all of the above.
