Stephanie claims that school disciplinary systems will not create resentment due to differing parenting methods. This is because parents want their children’s schools to provide good discipline.

The problem with this argument is that it fails to counter Sydonie’s claim that differing parental methods breed resentment. Establishing that parents care about discipline does nothing to prove that resentment won’t result from parents disagreeing over what good discipline entails.

This is descriptively inaccurate since the argument isn’t focused on educational research. It merely cites research as support for the claim that parents value good discipline.

Stephanie’s argument doesn't address a more general issue. Both Stephanie's and Sydonie's arguments are about whether disciplinary structures will create resentment. Sydonie thinks they will and Stephanie thinks they won't. The flaw in Stephanie's response is that she doesn't address Sydonie's claim that differing beliefs about discipline will lead to resentment.

This describes how Stephanie’s argument fails to counter the causal relationship posited by Sydonie. Sydonie claims that disciplinary systems breed resentment among parents with different approaches—the fact that parents value discipline doesn’t refute this.

Even if the phrase were more specific, it still wouldn’t provide support for the claim that school disciplinary systems do not create resentment. In any case, the phrase means important, so we can still understand that parents believe good discipline is important.

Irrelevant. Sydonie cites differing parental approaches as the source of the resentment, never mentioning educators. So Stephanie has no need to bring educators into it and her response isn't flawed for failure to mention educators' attitudes.
