In recent times, parenting advice and help has been made more available. There is a saying which once rang very true: "Children do not come with an instruction manual." While this is still true, there are many experts offering programs and advice on how to raise children and conflicting ideas on which parenting styles are most effective. When determining the best parenting style, it is important to base this decision on the personality of the child. Each child is different and what works for one child may not be effective for another.
