In our society child porn and child abuse or child molestation is illegal and can be punishable by death or incarceration. So why do we allow books like how to train up your child to even be published? if the things in the book which by the way is advocating child abuse and saying that this is the best way toget our child to obey are illegal to do to your child why is this allowed to be published. I do believe the parents as well have as much blame as the people who wrote the book if their child dies however not everyone is eduacted and some people will think that books like these are the accepted vernacular on parenting and wont know that this is ABUSE and will follow these writings to their kids detrement. and how are we suppossed to sit by and watch these parents do it and go to prison while the children die around then and NOT in any way implicate the people who actually wrote the book OR the companies who allowed such a monstrosity to be published in the first place.

Yes there is a freedom of speech and press and im sure these people will still find a way to get their evil message out, however if all the publishing companies ban together and REFUSE to publish ANYTHING that has such properties as these books then maybe we can finally stop seeing kids abused because of them. ENOUGH is ENOUGH. publishing companies have every right to read a book thats sent and deny it publishing so why are they not using that right to keep out this kind of publishing. PLEASE publishing companies do you not care about the children in our country? can you please STOP publishing such horrible books such as these?
