In 1986, the COG, which was now called The Family (eff. 1978), banned sex between minors and adults along with Flirty Fishing. Berg died in 1994 and Zerby, alongside her then-husband Peter Amsterdam, took full leadership of the cult. A British court, headed by Lord Justice Ward, issued a verdict during an investigation related to a 1995 UK trial, stating that the "Davidito book" was an example of Berg's promotion of pedophilia within the group, and that the leadership considered it a guidebook for adult-child relationships. Amsterdam, as ordered by Ward, distanced the Family from Berg's writings on child upbringing.
