I do not understand what is going on here. You cannot say one thing, and then give three million pieces of advice that contradict it. That makes utterly no sense. And what's hard about this is I've heard many a person trot out Michael's tying strings section as a defense against those who argue that his book leads to abuse. Look, I'm sorry, but stating once an actually good principle does not somehow negate the chapter upon chapter of absolutely toxic advice.
