Question: When I posted different answers to a question, some people seemed to frown upon it.

[Is $G/pG$ is a $p$-group?](https://math.stackexchange.com/questions/232526/is-g-pg-is-a-p-group)

Answer: 
When answers legitimately take different approaches, separate answers are usually better since they each come with different direct links and comments sections.
One reason we sometimes see multiple answers to the same question is some doubt as to the mathematical knowledge or experience of the person who has asked the question.

In such cases I think it is of general benefit to the person who has asked the question - and to future explorers of the site - to have the links between levels indicated.

My oldest daughter (aged 15) said to me yesterday - when I ask you about homework you often go off onto things I haven't learnt yet, and which I don't quite understand - but then when my teacher deals with them in class, I do get them, and my classmates don't. She was pondering why that was, and I was thinking - it's how I learned mathematics - from my dad.

This is a great site for sensing the direction of travel and the challenges ahead.
