It's absolutely disgusting that there are people out there who believe hitting their children, let alone their INFANTS, with plumbing line is in any shape, way, or form acceptable. This is abuse, pure and simple.The Pearls have taken to begging their ilk to post positive reviews on this book in an attempt to distract people from the harmful nature of this book. CHILDREN HAVE DIED because their parents followed these teachings.This book is dangerous, and no loving parent should follow these toxic "child training tips."This is not a godly book; this is a manual for child abuse.
