		<description><![CDATA[Christianity Today magazine has an informed and persuasive article on perfection and parenting. Find it at &#8212; http://www.christianitytoday.com/ct/2010/january/12.22.html The subtitle reads, &#8220;why the best parenting techniques don&#8217;t produce Christian children.&#8221; Needless to say, I loved the article and wished that I had written it!
