Discussion Questions Keisha’s parents are her primary caregivers, and are working hard to help create an environment that is healthly and most beneficial to the development of their child. Keisha’s parents are using an approach of discipline and regulation,

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.

Establishing positive parenting skills within the community will assist the parents in gaining new alternatives to their current practices. “Often we get the same families that are repeat offenders or they never really learn their ways of parenting are not acceptable” (Ruiz, 2015). Providing the “Strong Families” curriculum will reduce the number of children that are

Parenting is very important to children, and it directly or indirectly affects all aspects of a child's life, from school and behavior to social relationships and sports.

Children do not come with guidelines or instructions. What they do come with is a crucial set of physical and emotional needs that need to be met. To raise children properly, parents duties are not limited to just food, shelter and protection. Parents are largely responsible for their children’s success in life. Parents are required to teach and educate children. They have to shape knowledge and character into their children to prepare them to face the real world. To be successful with this, parents must provide self esteem needs, teach moral and values and provide discipline that is both effective and appropriate. As the generations have changed, many parenting styles have evolved, as well.

The upbringing of a child is no small task. Parents have the responsibility to form a loving relationship with their child and raise the child to be a functional adult. Unfortunately, many times parents do not see the need to have these close relationships with their offspring. A perfect example of the negative effects that this neglect can have on the child can be found in the book “Speak”. Even though Melinda's parents showed her attention at times, Melinda's detached family life caused her to develop more slowly in a social aspect, made it difficult for her to form relationships, and has slowed her recovery from sexual assault.

I'd had a rocky beginning as a single parent. My oldest child had certainly felt the brunt of my first divorce as well as my short-lived second marriage. I'd never had any trouble with my children; yet, suddenly, for the first time in his life, my son had trouble in school as well as at home. I'd sought counseling for him, but the older he got, the more he rebelled.

In the novel, The Catcher in the Rye, by J.D. Salinger, a major contributor to Holden Caulfield’s struggles is the absence of any loving and responsible adults. The three major problems that occur in the life of Holden are all a result of the poor guidelines that Holden’s parents set for him. By sending him to a predatory school, Holden must live without restrictions from any adults which forces him to learn from mistakes on his own. Throughout the book, Holden fails to obtain passing grades, hires a prostitute and is under the influence of alcohol. Basic parenting is a solution for preventing all of these conflicts.

The front door squeaks close. One’s child arrived home at 1:00 AM, but was instructed to be home at 10:00 PM. That child came home with his parents waiting on the stairs with hands on their waists. His parents yelled at the boy for twenty minutes and had all electronic devices taken away from him, but the parents needed to first understand what their children did, and how he could have solved the problem. Families shouldn't feel upset and ignore their children because they broke a rule; they should sit down with their child and listen to what they have to say. It’s important for a child to recognize what they did and give them options on how they want to resolve them. Throughout this unit, many parenting styles were presented, including Baumrind's

I chose to interview three family members in order to evaluate similarities and differences on experiences on what it’s like to be a parent. I believe that there is no right or wrong way to define what family is, but the definition of family comes with a wide range of beliefs about parenting and what it means to be “good parents” to their children. Every person is different and when it comes to every parent, they have their own style of parenting due to the environments as well as experiences within their environment. Throughout the interviews, I hope to gain knowledge and to be able to understand what it’s like to be a full time parent. Therefore, I have completed three interviews with three separate members of my family that were all raised by the same parents in the same household so it would be interesting to get an insight of how each individuals perspective as parents are. Furthermore, I will present a summary of questions that I’ve asked, a summary of their answers as well as an analysis of their way of parenting with some information that I’ve gathered and compare it to what I’ve learned in class.

Their findings indicated that when the emotional needs and security of a spouse is met they can better tend to the needs of the child or adolescents. Thus, the value of grounded relationships must be examined when looking at parenting styles as it is apparent to the quality of development in adolescents.

The conflict or problem in my book revolves around the mother of the story, Nikki. Nikki has three children; Matthew, Callie, and Emmy. All three of the children have to live with their abusive and unpredictable mother. Their mother goes out most nights and does not come home till the next morning. When she does come home she can be very aggressive. She eventually meets a decent man, that later becomes her boyfriend, named Murdoch. All of the kids fall in love with Murdoch. The kids love when he is around because Nikki is less abusive towards them, she's like a real mother for once. It’s not until Nikki and Murdoch break up that Nikki goes back to her old ways. I think that the problem will be solved by the kids beginning to live with their

The household is a single-family household consisting of the mother a five-year-old sibling. The mother reported because she had to work all the time different family members and friends helped to care for the child throughout the infancy. The mother reported that the child responded well to different people. The mother reported that being a single mother was stressful.

During the years, single parent families have become a more common thing. This is starting to become a problem, because family dynamics can really influence a child’s life. According to studies it affects not only the child but the parents too.
