You have made a harsh accusation and provided a weblink as support, which does not support your accusation. I could not find anything in the link you provided about beating. Remember this line? "Thou shalt not bear false witness."Binaca Chugger said:Is there a point?rsc2a said:On the other hand, beating your infant because they have a natural curiosity couldn't be classified as anything but abuse.

The same reason Bruce Jenner is being applauded for having the bravery to show the world who he really is.... and Tim Tebow was being ridiculed for having the bravery to show the world who he really is...
rsc2a said:Question 2 on blanket training. You know what blanket training is?
I can almost guarantee you rsc2a has no experience in abusing his children through blanket training or in any other manner. And I am not real happy about his post to me just now. But this is really out there. You must be a hacker.OR KJVO at the very leastBinaca Chugger said:rsc2a said:Question 2 on blanket training. You know what blanket training is?
I would guess that different people do this in different manners. T[his is their statement. I think it unfair to assume your experience upon them.
Binaca Chugger said:This is a problem. Why is noone concerened about the victims enough to not release this document? Who violated the law to release a sealed court document revealing the names of not just a minor offender, but several minor victims? Another question we ponder is why professional athletes can be convicted of abuse or even accomplice to murder, but they are paid millions to perform and given high accolades and honors? is our society really this messed up?AmazedbyGrace said:Binaca Chugger said:So far, everything has been reported by the tabloids, who, are the most credible source of information on alien activity on earth. :![]()
Not so. The 33 page police report has been released (well, published).

Granted Mike Pearl suggests a 1/2"plastic pipe instead of a ruler.

The Pearls are quacks. No argument there. Please, nobody should do what is written above. That is abuse.
However, different people might use the term, but apply it differently. If you read their statement, and follow their story enough to know their character, it is unfair to assume they use this expressed tactic. They state the necessity of leading by example and love. Personally, I question if the actually do it very much. Their little ones are a little out of control quite often.
Again, I think it is unfair to assign your experiences with one group of quacks to people who state and represent something different.
I have not heard them state they incorporate ruler slapping. Their official statement I posted states the opposite. Even if most people who do blanket training incorporate slapping, that doesn't mean everyone does. I will have to ask my girls about it. They have seen every episode and read both books.rsc2a said:Binaca Chugger said:rsc2a said:"So take your six month old and be ready to go at them with a ruler when they start to crawl.

Blanket training involves smacking a small child for moving. The Duggers have stated their preferred instrument of pain is a ruler.
The entire method is based on fear, not respect. "If I move from here, they will hit me."

Granted, Mike was kind enough to return the favour and promote their book.
Of course when asked if she used corporal punishment during this 'training', Mrs. Duggar spent 700-800 words to avoid saying either 'yes' or 'no'.
But keep whistling to avoid looking at the headstones.
