Query: Not a Christian book!!!!!

This book recommends practices that have nothing to do with the faith of Christ!!!! Can you imagine our Lord and Savior whipping a helpless infant? Tripping a child into deep water so it would learn to swim? Pulling the hair of a nursing baby?This book encourages parents to use these perverse practices, basing them on Old TEstament verses. Well Christ made all things new and brought new teachings to guide the people of the book. THOSE recommend loving and merciful treatment of all people, wise and gentle discipline of children - the way He taught His disciples!Please study the NEW TESTAMENT and follow Jesus' teachings, not those of the OT prophets when rearing your children to serve the Lord. This book should be shunned by all who follow Jesus!
