Good points all, Steve.  I stand corrected  ...  oops, I mean LOVED

 

As are you.  

 

Jim

Given the examples I provided, Jim... is there any argument that the person doing the judging is seeing more clearly? I mean...C'mon.

 

I didn't say that admonitions must come from those not engaged in the behavior. Nor did I imply that. But, it would be the height of hypocrisy to judge others before removing the plank.

 

Also, I never said anything about punishment... but only corrective admonition and love-based intervention. LOVE, is what I said, Jim, not punitive measures.
