There is no measure for successful parenting. We all have been raised successfully by our parents and believe that they took great care in raising us. That's what you do to raise your kids. Just teach them good habits, be polite and respectful to others. Provide them good education and love them.

I think if you explain some things, and they get a broader view of consequences then they will make their own mistakes without coming into too much harm. Rather than keeping some things a 'secret' because you feel they are not old enough, if they ask, then obviously they have some knowledge and are ready, far better to have a clear and concise ones than some made up rumour or ill-meaning advise.
I can see where my parents have made their mistakes with us, and I obviously know the mistakes their own parents did with them, to listen and learn and strive to do better is the only thing I can think of.
I think and believe, peoples own ideas of what constitutes as a 'successful parenting' is diverse and varied, depending on culture, experiences and religion. So no easy answers here!
