Although there are several styles of parenting, permissive parenting and authoritative parenting are the two that I identify with the most. Both of these styles of parenting understand the need for love and acceptance. Both styles of parenting are concerned with the well-being and safety of their children. However, the approaches and conditions governing them are much different. Although they share some important similarities the difference between permissive and authoritive parenting are quiet vast.
The psychologist Diana Baumrind identified three categories of parenting styles and linked them to children’s behaviors. “Authoritative” parents is one example, parents that have strong control when necessary, but they explain why and allow them to have their own opinion.
Concept 2 - Parenting Styles There's three parenting styles there's authoritarian, authoritative, and permissive. An authoritarian parent is someone who is strict, imposing many rules and not nurturing. An authoritative parent is someone who is allowing discussion with the kids, placing limits and nurturing. An permissive parent is someone who is inconsistent with few rules and very loving. For me, my mothers parenting style is authoritative, she can be strict, being not too
Augustus was well known for using artwork for political gains and assertions in order to establish himself as a righteous statesman and emperor of Rome. Augustus was Gaius Octavian on the 23rd of September 63 B.C. His father and mother were Gaius Octavius and Atia, niece of Julius Caesar. Augustus grew up alongside Julius Caesar, but after his death in 43 B.C, Octavian became propraetor (governor) and consul for the first time and was recognize as Julius Caesar’s adoptive son under the name, Gaius Julius Caesar Octavianus. As the first empeor of Rome, Augustus utilize the art of political propaganda to a full advantage among the Romans by using art in the service of his political and social ideology. For example, sestertius (coins) dating back to 37 B.C illustrates the portrait of Octavian on one side and the portrait of Divus Julius on the other. Political propaganda stunts like this were used by Augustus in order to demonstrate that he was the adoptive son of Julius Caesar, which further validated his claim to power. Coins were an easy tool to promote his claim because they were used daily by the citizens of Rome and nearby provinces. Three themes were common in Augustus political propaganda, one was to showcase his military victory as the foundation of his power, such as the Temple of Mars built after avenging Julius Caesar death. Two, peace achieved through military victory such as in the
The authoritative parenting style is the “In between,” of both the authoritarian and permissive parenting styles, and has a “Give and take approach.” Authoritative parents are very involved in their children’s lives: children help around the home and in decision-making processes, and homework is supervised. This approach to parenting raises children who are responsible, well behaved in school, have a high self-esteem, and good problem solving skills along with decision making skills. The authoritative approach to parenting has very positive effects on children’s lives presently, and in the future. (Marsiglia, C.,Walczyk, J., Buboltz, W., Ross, D. 2007).
Now, the role of another monoaminergic pathway in DR on emotional responses will be discussed. Biagioni et al. (2013) investigated the role of DR and LC in defensive behaviors. Serotonergic modulation of hypothalamic neurons plays an important role in the control of panic disorder in humans (Erhardt et al., 2006). Electrical stimulation of the hypothalamus induces panic attacks in both human subjects and laboratory animals (Schmitt et al., 1983). Specifically, the dorsomedial hypothalamus (DMH) has been implicated in the modulation of autonomic, neuroendocrine and behavioral responses and in the modulation of pain (Biagioni et al., 2013).
Authoritative parents “set standards, but also give their child choices. They recognize the good things that their child does, but they do not overlook the bad things. These parents are more confident and nurturing. They set standards that their child can meet. Usually, this type of parenting leads to a positive self-image in the child (Black, 2008). Permissive parents “do not control their children, it is more like the other way around. There is no discipline, and the child grows up knowing they can get whatever they want. When the parent does try to discipline, the child doesn't take it seriously. These parents give in easily and avoid confrontation whenever possible” (Black, 2008). In general American parents raise their children to have an individual personality, and to be independent from a very young age. “Firm disciplines are directed toward the infant and these are gradually relaxed as the child grows” (Suzuki, 2000).
Many psychologists throughout history have indulged in studies related to parenting behavior and how children are affected from such behavior. The work of Diana Baumrind, which is considered to be one of the most influential and well-studied theories of parenting behavior, was the first to identify three styles of parenting (Sclafani 44). These styles of parenting are called authoritative, authoritarian, and permissive. This paper will further explain descriptions of these styles and the typical behaviors of children as a result of each style. This paper will also provide insight on the parenting style I was raised on along with my thoughts on types of discipline I might use in the
Throughout the course of history, society had stereotyped women, making it merely impossible for a woman to achieve her goals and desires in life. This had weighed them not as equals, and for this, they were given different standards by which to live. At this day and age, and during the ancient Greek times, women have always been treated as second best by biased men, although today’s society has started to understand this inequality better as time progresses further into the future. Even with society becoming more equal for women, females are still treated similar as to time of the ancient Greeks. Women still don’t have as much power as men, are still “blamed” for wrongdoings and thought as untrustworthy, and are still used as “currency”
• Authoritative parenting is attentive to their children’s needs and will typically forgive and teach versus punishment for the child’s short comings. The result is the children have a higher self-esteem and independence. This is most recommended parenting style by experts.
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
The second group is called permissive parenting. Permissive parents give up most control and rules to their children. In contrast of authoritative parents, they permit their children to do anything children like. These parents want to bring their children freedom. They want their children to develop in the free ways. They do not set any rules and routines in their children’s lives. While authoritative parents do not provide children with choices, permissive parents give children as many choices as possible, even when the children are not able to make good choices. These parents accept with all their children’s behavior, good or bad, and permit their children develop in the ways their children like. Permissive parents want to bring their children warmness and love, and they never scold or punish their children. However, like authoritative parenting, permissive parenting sometimes is not good for children. Children do things in the wrong ways and this can bring them danger; however, there is no advice from parents to put them in the right ways. These parenting style can bring children and people around them danger.
Research indicates that about one-third of all parents use authoritative style of parenting. Regardless of the preferred style, varying factors such as culture, the temperament of the child and parent, and parental status will influence the interactive process of that style. Most parents could benefit from knowledge and information of these style to improve their parenting skills.Parenting style is a pattern of behavior that influences child-rearing practices. Approaches vary based on several factors, ranging from how parents themselves were raised to the goals parents have for their children.
Thesis: The authoritative parenting style is the most effective style for producing children that have desirable traits, such as good morals, obedience, compassion and responsibility.
Parenting can be challenging for most parents, and we don’t always get it right. Parenting takes time, unconditional love and understanding. Balswick and Balswick, (2014) suggests that “authoritative parenting” is more efficient. The development of a child is a very important and impacts their life overall into becoming a mature reciprocating self. I believe that good parenting starts with prayer, commitment and loving your children unconditionally. Authoritative parents do not let their children get away with wrong behavior, bad attitudes. These children are responsible and will more likely succeed in life.
Permissive parenting can best be described as having high levels of responsiveness but low levels of control and strictness. These “parents are very responsive and adopt supportive behaviors towards their child; on the other hand, they give the child a high degree of freedom, do not fix many rules and do not promote discipline.” (Dailey, p.342). These types of parents can be seen and nontraditional and lenient; they allow their children to self-regulate and the parents try to avoid confrontation. (Amiri, p. 21). This parenting style allows for the child to become independently and think creatively but does not give the child direction leading them to learn from their mistakes or in many cases get into problem behavior as they age.
