Amber's Authoritative Style Of Parenting

According to the textbook, authoritative parents have reasonable demands that consistent limits, they express warmth and affection, they are able to listen to their children's point of view They set up rules and explain the reasons behind the rules. They are flexible and willing to make exceptions to the rules in certain cases (cite ths). In speaking about education, according to Robinson (add year), the education system is broken, and we must fix it. In order to have a better education system, teachers should use authoritative teaching style. Having authoritative teaching style in classroom will form better student teacher relationship as well as setting higher academic success for the students.

Before having kids, everyone has an idealistic fantasy of what type of parent they are going to be. Will they be a Mary Poppins or a Mommy Dearest? These two women parented in very different but similar ways. Mary Poppins used an authoritative approach to parenting whilst Mommy Dearest used an authoritarian approach. Authoritative and authoritarian parenting styles are the most widely used styles in modern day parenting, with authoritative parenting being the one with the most positive results in terms of child development. They are similar in what parents expect from their children but differ in the way that parents respond to their children’s needs. The effects of the chosen parenting style can be seen in the way that a child feels about themselves and how they interact with the outside world.

A fixed mindset is when someone believes the abilities you are born with are the ones you will always have, and they cannot be changed. Children who possess a fixed mindset are likely to attribute their success to pure luck and their failures to ability or lack thereof. This is also known as learned helplessness. Children with a growth mindset, however, have a contrasting perspective. They believe abilities can be improved over time with an input of effort. They attribute their success to their abilities and their failures to variables that can be easily altered. As I have mentioned in the past, I fall under the authoritative parenting style. Because an authoritative parenting style is firm but caring and encouraging, I have cultivated a growth

Moving is hard. Growing up in the same place, in the same house, with the same people for you whole life and then having to be torn away to move to a new city is a hard thing for anyone, especially children. Riley Andersen, a twelve-year-old girl from Minnesota, goes through a big move when her father gets a new job. Riley and her family have to move to San Francisco, California, moving away from her community, her friends, hockey team, and everything else she has ever known. Her and her two married parents experience stress, unhappiness, and how Community shapes children. Community is a place for a person that involves a neighborhood and the area that surrounds them. Children develop by creating close bonds with people in their community, through things like school or a sports team. (CITE BOOK) The children also develop based on the quality of the neighborhood surrounding them. If the community is a good, wealthy community, a child will most likely partake in sports and good activities; however, if the community is poor,

Barbara Ann proved to her audience that she raised Danielle with an extremely indulgent parenting style. “The indulgent approach to child socialization represents an excessively lax parenting pattern wherein parents do not exercise control over their children. Indulgent parents are highest involvement with their children and lowest in strictness. They have few clear expectations for their children, and seldom set limits for them or provide consequences for their actions (Heath, pg. 34). She was very lax, not strict, inconsistent, and tried to put the role of being Danielle’s friend before the role as her mother. For example, Barbara Ann told Dr. Phil, Danielle was raised without many rules or boundaries for most of her life, because she never needed them. When Danielle began to act out and become disrespectful, Barbara Ann abruptly tried to change her parenting style to Authoritarian by ineffectively giving rules and setting limits. As a result, Danielle went to the extremes and did things like stealing her mom’s credit card, running away, and breaking the law. Barbara Ann used a “my way or the highway” method to try and discipline Danielle when she lashed out. This proved to be very ineffective. If Barbara Ann had raised Danielle with an authoritarian or authoritative style of parenting, this behavior

This paper describes how authoritarian, authoritative and permissive parenting styles affects the behavior of children. There are negative and positive effects that these parenting styles have on the behavior that children develop. While initially this paper expresses the positive and negative effects, this paper will also give the most effective and successful parenting styles in terms of a higher positive youth development (PYD). Also, the parenting styles are tested by Lerner’s five C’s to show which parenting styles are more successful in showing higher PYD levels. Research suggests that children from specific types of parenting styles are more likely to have better attitudes towards education and rules. This indicates that children with certain types of parents may be

Jess’ parents held on strongly to their religion and traditions and never fully integrated with Western ways of life. They lived in Hounslow neighborhood of West London, a community filled with Indians, and did not allow their children to make friends with anyone outside of their culture in order to avoid their children being negatively influenced by Western culture. “A stricter parenting style is believed to be necessary to develop the coping abilities to deal with racism and discrimination.” (Friedman, Bowden & Jones, 2009, p.384). Jess’ mother wanted both of her daughters to learn to cook traditional Indian food at a young age and find an Indian boy to get married to. She said, “I was married at your age. You don’t even want to learn

“It is not what you do for your children, but what you have taught them to do for themselves, that will make them successful human beings” Ann Landers. When it comes to children there are many ways parents raise their children. The way that parenting style that parents may be practicing may not be the most efficient. Briana Rackley is looking at the positive effect of the authoritative parenting style.

As with most other individuals, I grew up under two parenting styles: authoritative and authoritarian, which created a highly disciplined environment that for the most part worked when I think about substance abuse, behavioural problems, etc. However, there are aspects of this strict parenting that did not work well, the biggest being the transference of values. Both authoritarian and authoritative parenting has a goal of instilling particular values as a way of promoting independence, strength, etc. (Hickman, Bartholomae, & McKenry, 2000) but in my case, and in the case of some of my peers this enforcement of values becomes cloudy in the way that it’s transmitted such as the use of intimidation, physical discipline, rigid rulemaking, etc.

While a child is in its early age (3-5), their emotional and social development can be influenced very easily by many ways. The most common method is simply how their parents choose the type of parenting style they want the child to get accustomed to. In this paper, it will identify the studies of how Baurmind’s four parenting styles of authoritarian, authoritative, permissive and uninvolved have some contrasts and similar effects on the child’s emotional and social development. The different parenting affects will bring out if it is a positive or negative result for the child’s development. This research will also examine my own experiences of being raised in an authoritarian household and how it has molded me into the person I am today (Dewar,

In the early 1960’s, the psychologist Diana Baumrind identified the three parenting styles in psychology, authoritarian parenting, authoritative parenting, and permissive parenting. All of these parenting styles are seen today throughout everyone’s lives. All of these parenting styles can affect a person differently and studies have shown that depending on what style a person has been raised with can affect whom that person becomes and how they behave in life.

Although authoritative and authoritarian parenting styles sound similar, they are different approaches with very different outcomes. “Authoritarian parents are highly demanding and directive, but not responsive” (Darling, 1999). They expect their children to be obedient. These parents want their children to have strict rules and live in well-ordered environments. “Authoritarian parents want their children to agree with their decisions, principles and goals without any questions” (Baumrind, 1989). They are highly psychologically controlling. They also use physical punishment such as spanking or slapping. On the other hand, authoritative parents are approachable. They are assertive, but not restrictive. They discipline children by supporting

I will reflect on my own experiences to address this journal. My inmediate family consisted of both of my parents and two siblings (I was the second and middle one). Our family was of a low-socioeconomic status. Nevertheless, we lived in a relatively good neighborhood. My parents, in particular my father used an authoritarian parenting style to raise us. The authoritarian parenting style is a restrictive pattern of parenting in which adults set many rules for their offspring, demand strict obedience, and rely on authority rather than rationale to elicit compliance (Shaffer & Kipp, 2010); physical punishment and other methods of physical discipline are frequently used as means of correction (Secombe, 2011). Nevertheless, it must be said that such practices were common during my upbringing (1970’s to 1980’s). Even

Thinking back to my childhood I remember my parents using authoritative parenting. Each of us knew the rules and when broken we knew there would be consequences. However, now that I am aware of the other two styles of parenting and how each of the styles affect the children later in life my parents most certainly used two different kinds of parenting styles. With us girls they must have stuck with the authoritative parenting the entire time. With the two boys they at some point switched and began to use permissive parenting with them. If I wouldn’t have been raised with authoritative parenting I believe I would be controlling and not as easy-going as I am. When things don’t go my way I look at it as “What can I do to fix this?” and if there

According to Diana Baumrind's descriptions of three parenting styles, my father was authoritarian and my mother is permissive. It was my father who set up a schedule of weekly chores that I was responsible for completing. If I did not complete them, or if I completed them but not to his standards, I was physically punished. It was my father who forced me to take ballet lessons instead of the karate lessons I wanted to take when I was ten years old. His reasoning was little girls didn't take karate lessons, and what he said was final. There are several other examples of his "my way or the highway" parenting but the memories are not pleasant for me. My mother is permissive in her parenting. She let my father set the rules but she didn't enforce
