We can see the dangers of being too liberal with your kid. God clearly punished this kid by killing him, because he had too liberal cherry picking parents. Let's just take a look at these anti-Christian discipline methods.
Some of the discipline techniques the Pearls teach include:
Quote:
Using plastic tubing to beat children, since it hurts a lot but leaves fewer marks to alert authorities
Wearing the plastic tubing around the parent's neck as a constant reminder to obey
"Swatting" babies as young as six months old with instruments such as "a 12-inch willowy branch," thinner plastic tubing or a wooden spoon
"Blanket training" babies by hitting them with an instrument if they try to crawl off a blanket on the floor
Beating older children with rulers, paddles, belts and larger tree branches
"Training" children with pain before they even disobey, in order to teach total obedience
Giving cold water baths, putting children outside in cold weather and withholding meals as discipline
Hosing off children who have potty training accidents
Inflicting punishment until a child is "without breath to complain."

Rulers? Plastic tubing? Belts? Leaving fewer marks!!!???
Jesus clearly says that if we do not use ROD on our kids, we hate them. Also disciplinary actions must leave proper marks if we want to take evil away as intended.
Proverbs 22:15 Foolishness is bound in the heart of a child; but the rod of correction shall drive it far from him.
Proverbs 13:24 He that spareth his rod hateth his son: but he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes.
Proverbs 20:30 The blueness of a wound cleanseth away evil: so do stripes the inward parts of the belly.
