Talk:Parenting practices

This article was previously nominated for deletion. The result of [Parenting practices the discussion] was keep.

Merge or clarify bias

This page might easily appear to be an authoritative page about the consensus on parenting styles, which it isn't. It also goes over some of the same ground as Concerted cultivation. So I wonder if it might be better to merge this page into Concerted cultivation, and have natural growth and the other topics as headings of that page. Neither page is very long nor has any other topic to focus on.

The alternative which I was thinking earlier, was to merge this into parenting styles, but as someone said in the deletion discussion log, this is a significant topic and putting it there wouldn't do it justice.

At the very least, it should be made even clearer that this page is one specific viewpoint.

Agreed that although this is a useful article, the title is deceptive. This article should be merged with parenting styles (based on the title) or renamed (based on the content) in order to clarify the intended difference between the two pages. This would aid in organizing and further developing the parenting articles. Ikzing (talk) 20:17, 11 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
