Which is a general newborn-care teaching principle nurses commonly reinforce with new parents?

General newborn-care teaching commonly includes reinforcing safe practices — such as safe sleep recommendations and supporting the newborn's head and neck — and providing individualized education and support to new parents, including encouraging their questions. Newborns require careful safety precautions, and parent education is a core part of postpartum and newborn health promotion. Discouraging questions or omitting guidance would be inappropriate. Understanding that newborn care involves teaching safe practices and supporting parents is a standard health-promotion concept. (This reflects general principles; specific safe-sleep and care recommendations change over time and must be verified against current authoritative guidance and NCLEX prep materials.)
