This book is a dangerous book to be in print! It is abuse disguised in religious hypocrisy. It is horrible that people, especially religious people, are using this book as justification to be abusive to children. Being religious does not equal spirituality and this book once again highlights that principal very bright! A higher power could never condone such cruel behavior in the name of something spiritual. The authors are misguided people that need help~! PLEASE DON'T LISTEN TO ONE THING IN THIS BOOK!
