What parenting advice did you find to be NOT TRUE or totally NOT REALISTIC?

Angie asked:


I feel like a lot of the advice that books and magazines give is misleading, and makes people think they are bad parents when they are really not. What “standard advice” do you really disagree with?

How do you stay current on the latest scientific research on parenting and child development?

Benson asked:


I considered subscribing to _Child Development_, a scholarly journal that publishes a lot of the leading research articles on parenting and child outcomes, but it’s subscription fee is horrendous. (Set for university libraries, not parents, I guess.)

Most magazines seem to give very short shrift to research. They interview so-called experts for ideas from time to time, but you can tell that these folks are rarely research scientists.

So have any of you found any good methods of doing this?
