Some people are perceptive enough to discern their children's differences; strengths and weaknesses; likes and dislikes; what works and what doesn't. All three of my children are different from each other. A parent can't just read somebody's book and suddenly become an expert.
And someone who has never had nor probably ever WILL have a child is CERTAINLY no expert.

Exactly, it is an art to be able to read someone and gauge how to best educate them, and that's what properly timed whack on the arse is, education.
