Most of the time, these incredible changes pass by uneventfully, with parent and child adjusting to their new roles with relative ease. As with any changes, however, sometimes things don’t run quite so smoothly and parents can feel lost as to how best to support their child’s development. Here, parents are often offered huge amounts of well-meaning but conflicting advice, none of which quite fits their family’s needs and circumstances.
