We hardly remember how our parents raised us when we were newborn/infants. How can we be expected to raise our own kids after they are born ?

Barring any issues with a kid outside of a parent’s control, this is what one should hope for a kid:

Top of the list: Love, safety, food, etc., the basics, and a lack of judgement for *personality or other orientation. That’s 90% of it.

Teach your kid right from wrong not by command or dogma, but by example.

Teach your kid how to learn, and teach them directly as needed.

*I don’t have the vocabulary in my head, but the gist I’m after is not trying to cram a kid into your mold. Sexual orientation-wise, how they dress, what jobs or careers are acceptable, sports… Let them be who they are as long as there’s no harm.
