I'd like to understand this: baby feeding attitude scale. As someone experienced, what would you suggest?

The real reply from the in-app AI advisor

A baby feeding attitude scale is a tool that evaluates how parents approach feeding their babies. Basically it tells apart three main styles: strict/controlling, permissive/relaxed, and responsive/intuitive. Research shows the healthiest outcome comes from the responsive approach — knowing your baby's hunger and fullness cues, not forcing them to eat but setting limits too.

You can use this scale as a personal awareness tool; it helps to see which way you lean. But it's not a diagnosis on its own, more of a guide. Depending on your baby's age and temperament, you might need to flex sometimes. Did you see this scale somewhere specific, do you have a source in mind?
