parenting guide

Raising kids resource

A parenting guide is a book, website, or other resource offering advice on raising children.

The term covers everything from clinical manuals on child development to casual blogs about managing toddler tantrums: I've read every parenting guide on sleep training and none of them work.

The genre ranges from evidence-based to pseudoscientific.
