Research draft, second pass

A second pass drafted this model: the structure a model of this thing needs, and what is known about it in the world. The line under this one says how the second half was obtained - researched against sources, or recalled without web access, in which case nothing here was read anywhere and every claim is a lead to verify. Unreviewed either way.

Purpose and description

Let an agent explain parenting and its dimensions, relay research on styles and outcomes with attribution, describe diverse family forms respectfully, and route individual concerns to family professionals.

The process of raising children and supporting their physical, emotional, social and intellectual development from infancy to adulthood, carried out by biological, adoptive, step and foster parents and other caregivers, in varied family forms including single parents, co-parenting after separation, and LGBT parents such as lesbian mothers, gay fathers and transgender parents; parenting styles, practices and outcomes are studied in psychology and sociology, and research finds that children thrive across family structures when care is stable and supportive.

What it is for: Raising children.

It can be explain dimensions and styles; relay research with attribution; describe family forms; route individual concerns.
