All behavior is linked to attitudes of the heart. Therefore, discipline must address attitudes of the heart.

Tedd Tripp

Tedd Tripp ist ein US-amerikanischer evangelikal-reformierter Pastor, Seelsorger und Autor, der von 1980 bis 2012 eine Gemeinde in Pennsylvania leitete. Weithin bekannt wurde er durch sein Erziehungsbuch „Eltern – Hüter der Herzen“ („Shepherding a Child’s Heart“), das eine Ausrichtung auf die Herzenshaltung des Kindes betont, wegen der Befürwortung körperlicher Züchtigung jedoch scharf kritisiert wird. Heutigen Bibellesern begegnet er als einflussreiche Stimme konservativer Familienethik, deren Methoden und Autoritätsverständnis stark polarisieren.
