Spare The Rod: Corporal Punishment in the Name of God (PART 1 OF 2)
SUPPORT THIS SHOW on Patreon: http://www.patreon.com/sethandrews
Proverbs 13:24 says, "Whoever spares the rod hates their children, but the one who loves their children is careful to discipline them." Is this a healthy approach to child-rearing and the discipline of children?
We explore many religious rules for parenting, and we share the perspectives of listeners who have firsthand experience with strict (and not-so-strict) homes, physical punishments, and the often lasting consequences.
This is part one of a 2-part series. The second half airs next week.
