There are two big issues so far:
1. They say truth is truth no matter who is saying it. In one sense, I agree with this statement, but my issue is this: your source matters. Where someone starts from to get their information can have a huge impact on the results
2. They make so many blanket statements about children who are spanked/punitive punishment with no regard to age or what else is going on in the home.

I love some of the information and ideas in this book. However, there are two things that keep me from accepting a lot of what they are saying:
1. Almost all the toddlers I know who are exclusively gentle-parented are horrible to be around.
2. They make it sound like your kids will never learn to solve stuff on their own if you don't use gentle parenting or do use the rod. This is an incorrect blanket statement.

Well, this part is interesting. By interesting, I think they are trying too hard to make their point and are actually making me start to think they don't really have one.
