"That's Child abuse"

I was in a local walmart today when a woman was with her child and the child was having a fit and sitting on the ground and refusing to get up the woman proceeded to grab the child hand and began to walk. So picture this a woman holding a small baby walking as the boy on the ground slid on his but The woman in front of me says "That's Child abuse" I turned and looked at the woman as if she was crazy and   say "no its not" It was at this time I wanted to start preaching to the woman. The woman pulling the child was  establishing a limit to the child as to what was acceptable behavior. She was also was showing the child who was in charge.  We as parents have  to set limits and teach our children right from wrong, even if it means pulling our child along when they don't want to go. Sometimes we as Christians act as the child on the floor we think that we know better than god as to where we should go or what we should do. Sometimes God has to reach down and grab our hand and drag us across the floor on our butts to get us back on the right path. Just as the woman did not want to drag her child god does not want to drag us.
