I do think they say something about unusual parenting, but I agree that it’s not directly applicable. These studies make it clear that most parenting differences don’t have long term effects even though it’s intuitive to us that they should. Thus you should require good additional evidence to make you think that a given unusual parenting style will have long term effects.
Yup, see my comment about adoption studies.
