Barring any issues with a kid outside of a parent’s control, this is what one should hope for a kid:

Top of the list: Love, safety, food, etc., the basics, and a lack of judgement for *personality or other orientation. That’s 90% of it.

Teach your kid right from wrong not by command or dogma, but by example.

Teach your kid how to learn, and teach them directly as needed.

*I don’t have the vocabulary in my head, but the gist I’m after is not trying to cram a kid into your mold. Sexual orientation-wise, how they dress, what jobs or careers are acceptable, sports… Let them be who they are as long as there’s no harm.

Becoming a parent you need to learn these things if you didn’t have a strong base from your own life to draw from. Some of us have a daily uphill battle to right the wrongs of the past. All of us will commit wrongs of our own, just gotta hope you can admit to them and fix your waya.
