Last night's Channel five prog was somewhat disturbing. Familiy homeschooling and bringing up their children through Bible teaching. A mother administering a beating to her 6 yr old son for claiming he had cleaned up the dishes when he hadn't? This was sinister, creepy and contained parasexual elements that were disturbing.
For a start it is not a woman's job to administer such corrections. Secondly it was totally unjustified, thirdly it was followed by comforting which is just confusing for the child. Fourthly the woman needed a damn good thrashing for her impudence and malice.
An otherwise good programme was undermined by the whacky whacking mother and the positive message of homeschooling and Bible oriented child/ adolescent rearing totally eclipsed.
