Parenting behavior - Ikujikoudo

Japanese: 育児行動 - いくじこうどう
Parenting behavior - Ikujikoudo

…When children reach the age of about seven, they join a group of children and receive discipline and education in a group setting.
[Animal rearing]
Since the purpose of animal parenting is to ensure the survival of offspring, animals that give birth to fewer offspring generally have better developed parenting behavior. Most insects leave their eggs lying around, but in most cases they lay them on something that will become food for the hatched larvae.

From [Action]

...the male provides food (often as a ritualistic formality) to the female; typical examples are found in birds such as terns and insects such as night flies.
[Paternal care]
It refers to all the behaviors that parents exhibit from the time they give birth until the offspring are able to live independently, including the incubation and brooding of birds. Naturally, the more immature the offspring are in a species, the more developed their parenting behaviors are.
