Natural Childhood: IRELAND: We forced Christian behaviour into Catholic schools
http://naturalchildhood.blogspot.com/2009/07/ireland-we-forced-christian-behaviour.html
Thursday, July 16, 2009. IRELAND: We forced Christian behaviour into Catholic schools. Far from doing nothing, it was the people who stopped corporal punishment. The strap was pulled from their hands. Not by Christian vision but by secular enforcement. That is a scandalous fact then, now and forever. We can never change that truth - Christian values had to be forced by the secular arm of the State on teachers and religious. But we can, I hope, painfully but generously forgive. I was enraged at such corru...

http://naturalchildhood.blogspot.com/2008/12/staff-too-timid-on-child-abuse.html
Wednesday, December 03, 2008. Staff 'too timid' on child abuse. Professionals must not be too reluctant to remove children from abusive parents, a group of experts has said.

The typical parent, when whacking a misbehaving child, doesn't pause to wonder: "What does science have to say about the efficacy of corporal punishment? If they are thinking anything at all, it's: "Here comes justice! But parents keep on hitting. Why? So what's the case for not hitting? In this country, if you do the same thing to your dog that you do to your child, you're more likely to get in trouble for mistreating the dog.

Natural Childhood: HISTORICAL EVOLUTION OF CHILD REARING
http://naturalchildhood.blogspot.com/2012/03/historical-evolution-of-child-rearing.html
Friday, March 30, 2012. HISTORICAL EVOLUTION OF CHILD REARING. For the past 40 years I have been researching with over a hundred of my fellow psychohistorians the slow, uneven evolution of historical child rearing practices. We have discovered that there have been six parenting modes that have evolved historically:. 1infanticide (tribes, early states),. 2abandoning (early medieval),.

Ten Ways We Misunderstand Children. 1 We expect children to be able to do things before they are ready. 2 We become angry when a child fails to meet our needs. 3 We mistrust the child’s motives. 4 We don’t allow children to be children. 5 We get it backwards. 6 We blame and criticize when a child makes a mistake.
