I managed to raise three pretty good kids by pretty much just following my instincts.
Because not everyone has instincts. Those traits tend to come from your own parents style (or in spite of them in some cases).
Many kids are "raised" by full-time/life-long childcare, tossed around in foster care until adulthood or simply want to do better than their own parents.
Education, reflection and fresh ideas can never be a bad thing....
