I haven't ready any Ludy books, but have read other similar books and I think I know too what you're talking about. It's not that it's not admirable/right/what-have-you, it's almost as if they're saying, "OK. We have it all together. If you do not make it up to this standard you FAIL."
One reason why I don't like a lot of conservative Christian blogs. It feels like a brag fest about how holistic, chaste, and modest they can be. These are good things, but not when you rub it in someone else's face who maybe didn't get to experience that or are talking down to the Less Enlightened. *sigh*
