Hey I’m abt to talk abt religious child abuse so if you’re not up for that keep scrolling

Not to be That Guy ™ yet again but the tag “trainupachild” is a reference to a fundamentalist Christian parenting book that basically recommends beating your child for basically everything and has resulted in child death.

That kid isn’t doing that bc he’s just organically come about this great love for god—he’s doing that because literally dramatic displays of “grace”, ESPECIALLY PUBLICLY in ways that can bring their guardians praise, is one of the few things that will give him a positive response from his guardians

like I get it—we wanna dunk on the mom for being obnoxious, but knowing exactly what that tag means has me absolutely nauseous

Train Up A Child advises parents to use plastic tubes to beat them with because they are less likely to leave marks that might lead to CPS calls. It also says belts and branches are good for places that can’t be seen but does caution to use a “willowy” branch if the child is under the age of one.

Yes, they advocate for hitting infants with sticks

Excuse me what? How is this legal?

it´s not legal, that´s the point

they are literally doing their best to bypass law and abusing their children happily

gross and unchristian
