It is a clearinghouse of "all things Ezzo" and organizes the medical, journalistic, and other information clearly. The site owner strives to have everything well-documented and factually accurate. Ezzo supporters don't like that site. *wink* However, they find fault with the fact it points out the problems with Gary Ezzo and his teachings--they can't find fault with its accuracy. I especially encourage people to check out the "Voices of Experience" section for the <i>been there, done that</i> stories. I believe it is important to remember that the vast majority of parents who follow the ideas of Gary Ezzo, Michael Pearl, or other extreme, punitive teacher really love their children dearly and want the best for them. Often they are so motivated to do everything "right" that they are more vulnerable to these authoritarian teachers. Ugh.

They make my heart hurt. Quite frankly I could cry thinking about the children in the homes of those who adhere to their teaching. WHY so many christians blindly follow their clearly UNChristlike advice is such a mystery to me. I can only shake my head and plead intercesion for those poor babies.
