Should there be a 'parenting' skill?

that was much like I was thinking, but I wasn't sure if the zero level would still require some familiarity with the minor in question or it was less a matter that you know the minor or wither the minor see you as a position of somewhat authority, as a Peer's Parent, a Teacher or a Group Leader, hence putting the random minor as the baseline and the getting bonus for both familiarity and/or for authority figure. [not that the authority alone is enough hence the skill]

But that still leaves the question of magnitude of the various modifiers.

I'll argue TL based on diapers. Do they exist? How do you put them on? What do you do after removing? For older kids, net usage is a good example of a modern issue. Education to toilet training vary by TL.

Where a counter argument is while tech helps, making it a TL skill bars it from those with a racial IQ of 6 or less.
