Self-platformed Christian parenting influencers claim timeless biblical authority as a way of inflating what has always ever just been personal preference. This leads to unquesitonable certainty and a pressure cooker for everyone. It robs families of so much joy and freedom. 1/2

What have you heard Christian parents say to defend “spanking”? Or what made (makes?) it difficult for you to give up the practice? We have a chapter on corporal punishment in The Myth of Good Christian Parenting, available everywhere now. 1/2 #christianparenting #discipline #biblicalparenting

AI bots are really reaching this time. Harper is the one that published Story’s End 13 yrs ago 😅 And what a subtitle! 🥴 But Story’s End is my favorite of my novels (you have to read Storybound first!) It’s our bedtime read aloud this week & it’s been fun to revisit! ✨🪄🏰

Why do I continue to talk so much about spanking? B/c overwhelmed parents continue to be told to do it, to everyone's harm. It is possible to unapologetically advocate for children and extend compassion to parents who have been trapped in this. #biblicalparenting #christianparenting #spanking
