Discovery #2 in #biblicalparentingexposed: Most Xian parenting books heavily spotlight complementarian marriage roles as starting point/basis for everything that follows, leading to self-perpetuating cycle of hierarchy, authority, family enmeshment & children as 2nd class. 🧵
Consider: "The crown of creation was the holy union of the man and woman...the Bible exalts marriage to the highest level..." pg. 33 (see aforementioned presumptions-authoritatively-presented-without-proof).
And this: "If children were necessary to complete man & woman, God would have created them before making [the declaration that creation was very good]. Therefore, the marriage rel lacks nothing. Woman alone completes man & man alone completes woman."

Am reading Growing Kid's God's Way for my #biblicalparentingexposed book. Authors explain their ideology that influenced millions was based on 6 couples chatting in a living room over 6 mo “We talked about right & wrong, good & evil, & what it looks like in everyday parenting.”🫠
It's stunning, esp considering that the most rapidly filling subheading in my notes is "Presumptions/opinions authoritatively presented as givens w/out any proof"
