Correct Way To Implement WordPress Child Themes

The correct way to implement WordPress child themes is to use them for simple changes. If you are doing a child theme and replacing all of the files, then what you have is a new theme and not a child theme. The purpose of child themes is for minor changes, maybe the sidebar.php is different or you want to add more theme widgets to the parent theme and don’t want to use a plugin. At some point, if you are doing such things as adding functionality, well that should be done by way of either functions.php or a plugin.
