Where do parents go for child care advice?
Abstract:
Parenting advice is now available from a wide range of sources. Informal networks and written literature provide first-line support, but advice from health care professionals remains highly important. The health professional's skill centres on knowing what advice and approach to information giving is appropriate for an individual situation. It is also important to respect and understand cultural influences in individual communities, and work with such forces to ensure that the community as a whole understands why specific child care practices are important.
