Four Parenting Styles

As summarized, different types of parenting, personalities, and reinforcement/punishment influence the way that a child develops, but the general solution to having the best parenting technique is to remain in the middle, or to implement a bit of all in the development of the

A parent’s parenting styles are as diverse as the world we live in today. Nowadays, parents only want what is best for their children and their parenting styles plays a crucial role in the development of children which will in the long run, not only effect the child’s childhood years, but later prolong into their adult life as well.

Adella, you’re absolutely right. Different rules and regulations will cause dysfunctional family, and if care is not taking it can cause delinquent for the children. Family should have common rules and boundaries that will build a healthy family , not the rules and regulation that will disorganize and devour the family system. That is, the family, especially the parent should have one mouth to train the children before they turn to criminals in the society. Some children like to play on their parent intelligent and causing a lot of misunderstanding and confusion in the family. Parent should communicates very well with their children and involve them in the solution to any problem that might arise in the family. Showing love and compassion

Yes, something should be tweaked and maintain some parental involvement, but it shouldn’t be soul crushing. As well as allowing your kids to be autonomous and having them learn responsibility they also take this by handling mistakes on their own and develop strong survival skills and street-smarts. In the end you can try and look for the “best parenting book” out there and take its advice, but in reality no one knows your kids better than yourself. As Jennifer Senior quoted in her TED talk, “All these books well-intended…I do not see as help when I look at that shelf. I see anxiety.” (Senior, TED talk) In other words do what you feel is right, we were given our nature vs nuture instincts for a reason, so why not use

With over three hundred million Americans and over six billion people worldwide parenting skills are essential to maintain a healthy society. Parenting involves many aspects and requires many skills. It is a time to nurture, instruct, and correct to develop fundamental skills children will need to be mature, responsible, and contributing adults to a society. There are four commonly identified parenting styles; authoritarian, authoritative, permissive, and uninvolved parenting. Of the four parenting styles, two remain on opposite ends of the parenting spectrum. These two styles; authoritarian, and permissive both have deleterious results that are often visible throughout different developmental stages, such as rebellious behavior. As well

There are pros and cons to both parenting styles. Some pros from both sides are that the children are nurtured, receive all of the education

Parenting styles have always been a hot topic and every couple has different ideas on how they should raise their children. Studies have been done to see which style works the best and has the greatest outcome on the child. Of the four styles that were tested, Tough Love, Laissez faire, Authoritarian, and Disengaged, Tough Love came out on top and Laissez faire came in second. Of the outcomes of the children and judging by their level of success in jobs and happiness. 26% of the children raised by tough love standards came out of the top 20% of children’s outcomes. The reason for this would be that the tough love style of parenting offers the best combinations of love and authority while still allowing the children

I think so many factors influence parenting. I would like to start this off with one of the most important factors I think that influence parenting, and that is having a child unplanned and not being ready for it versus planning for a child and being ready for it.

Parenting Styles play an important role in the development of a child in fact research has revealed that parenting Styles can influence a child's social cognitive social growth with effects children both in the childhood years and as an adult this is because children develop throughout a number of stimuli interactions and exchange with what's surrouning them the fact that parents are regularly around a child's life will influence him or her and a negative or positive way,

Special outings can be great bonding experiences, but not every time you’re together; it’s important to strike a balance between entertaining family time and exercising parental responsibilities. The cliché of dad being the fun parent may seem like the easy path, but it’s unhealthy for kids to have no rules, as well as disrupting their routine and habits in their other home.

I value both independence and interdependence. I believe it is very healthy to create a balance between the two. My wife and I are independent with our financial responsibilities. However, when it comes to aiding in a family project we are eager to participate and likewise. Having a two year old places my spouse and I in the muck of things when it comes to our discipline approaches. I would have to say that we practice an egalitarian or democratic parenting style with our discipline approaches. We attempt to give our son the opportunity to make choices with this actions. The rewards and consequences are clearly explained to the best of our abilities. However, given certain

Parenting style can be diverse from country to country, but even across country they can be surprisingly similar. As Being from Greece I would like to compare the American parenting style to the Greek parenting style. An interview of my roommate was conducted which showed that her parents were never strict with her and she never had a curfew. Her parents let her make her own decisions. This is how things work in my family as well. My parents let me make my own decisions and take responsibility for any consequences. Apart from that she argued that in her family the mother is in charge of the house and the children’s care whereas the father is less involved. So things are not as different between our families. On the contrary they are rather similar. However, whether parenting styles are pretty much the same it is also very important how a specific parenting behavior takes place. If it takes place under harsh and non-friendly conditions then the child will never know how to act in a good way around people and it will never have the manners that its parents would wanted it to.

Paternal responsibilities begin shortly after a baby is born, having an extensive role; parents leave an enormous imprint on the life of their child. Generally, parents establish their own style of raising their children through different factors, such as, the way they were raised, parenting styles they have seen in other families, cultural influences, or the temperament of their child. Parenting itself comes in four different approaches including: authoritative, authoritarian, indulgent, and uninvolved. With any of these techniques parents commonly strive to learn how to manage the approaches they encounter when raising their child: communication, discipline, warmth/support, and setting expectations.

After a lot of examination on my part I believe that there is no “correct” way to parent your child. What works for one child, might not work for the next one. I can tell you first hand that there are already things I would do differently and my daughter is only fifteen months old. With her I see myself as a strict mother with soft moments, nothing like my husband, the other member of my “team”. I do not think he has a strict bone in his body when it comes to his little girl, maybe if our next child is a boy it will be different, but only time will tell for sure. If I take nothing else from my parenting investigation I learned just how important it is to study all possibilities and implement a plan that works best for you and your family. I learned a lot from Amy Chua and I hope to continue to parent my daughter to the best of my ability.

Through my research and attendance of the Strengthening Families classes, it became glaringly obvious that the approach I was taking to parenting, was not successful. One of my discoveries through this project is that overall, my children respond better to a collaborative approach and it is more meaningful to hold them accountable for their actions when we have all decided ahead of time what those consequences will be. While I have five children left in my home, I have an older son who is married and on his own, I have been parenting one way for a very long time and I found changing
