Re: Grace-Based or Fear-Based Parenting?
I have read most of the book. Our church handed it out at a parenting class.
In that chapter the author is showing the dangers of being to legalistic AND being to lenient to the point of allowing the children to make all their own decisions.
The whole point of the book is that we should focus on training the heart of the child and teaching them to make correct decisions. His main point in that chapter is that if all you have are rules you will end up with children who will find loopholes and that many christians fall into the trap of the "checklist" method of parenting.
