It seems this article's point is debunking a myth that parents have no impact on their children, and I'm sure that's not true, It's not a coincidence both my parents were in tech and I'm in tech. It doesn't seem this article is really emphasizing or trying to make a point about good parenting. I think that parents impact on their children is particularly tru at the extreme ends of parenting where there are some extreme outcomes, as someone who is about to become a parent, I think my philosophy is going to be, do my best, work on myself, try to learn from my mistakes and don't obsess about it. I think like most things in life, trying too hard is just as bad as not trying hard enough. I doubt most of us are even capable of the discipline it would require to be "perfect parents" anyways.
