As far as parenting goes, I will be a parent who is attentive and understanding to my child’s needs, not only their physically needs but their emotional and mental needs as well. I will be a parent who teaches my child the importance of taking care of themselves in a physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual sense. I will be most closely described as an authoritative parent in terms of the ways I will parent my child. I will have rules set and they will be firm rules, however I will not be against and unwilling to explain to my child why certain rules are in place. As far as discipline goes, I will not give my child whooping’s. I do not think they are the most effective form of punishment nor do I believe that it is necessary with the exception
These are all good questions that could each be a research paper. Some of them I feel a rhetorical in that they just don’t have an answer. Either way, they should feel the soul with anger at the thought of so much suffering that doesn’t need to happen. Most of these questions get at something that could be preventable if stopped at thought about for a moment. The question regarding corporate America influence the values of our children should make us think about parenting. Corporate America raising kids and not parents is something that is preventable in so many ways. Here is an idea, stop letting children watch so much television and go outside and play. To add to that idea, educating and inspiring parents to be parents. Not all these questions
Although there are many types of parenting, two of the most common are the completely lenient parent who is like a friend and the drill sergeant parent who expects nothing but the best from their child. These two types of parenting present totally different ideas of a how a child should be raised. From punishing, expectations, and the amount of freedom, distinction occurs.
This article takes into consideration that parenting classes should be taught in high school. It reinforces the idea that new skills are being taught to prepare students for the future, but one of the most important skills, how to be prepare to raise a child, is not being taught. The article reasons that if parenting classes would be provided in school, it would provide many benefits to society and students. For example, “...[I]n 2011, 329,797 babies were born to high school age moms” (Anderson). If parenting classes were taught in school, it could help expose teens to the appeals of raising a child and can better prepare them for the future. Parenting classes can also reduce the rate of child abuse. Child abuse is believed to be caused
One of the greatest pieces of advice that I have received is that if you do something that you love, you will never work a day in your life. It took me changing my major three times to find what I am truly passionate about. After I changed my major to child and family studies I enjoyed learning everyday and applying what I learned from class into the real world. The knowledge that I obtained through my classes assisted me through my experiences as a nanny, a student worker for the department of child and family studies at Tarleton, and lastly through my internship at Gladney Center for Adoption this past summer. I had thought about pursuing a MSW since I switched to child and family studies. The few social work classes I was enrolled in have been some of my favorite material. Ultimately my internship through Gladney and my passion for adoption led to my final decision to pursue a masters in social work.
My parenting style is shown through the many different decisions I made throughout my child’s development. When making certain decisions I asked myself how I was going to assess the situation. How was I going to make the decision where it would benefit me and my child in the future? I would describe my parenting style as very disciplined, however, laid back during certain situations. When there was a problem I made the decision to address the problem with my child. For example, at 18 months, Leo started saying the word “no” and started to refuse help. I made the decision to let him choose between two choices which are both options that I want him to do. This allowed my child to become an active part in making choices during a certain situation. At three years old, Leo was being pushed around in school and was lacking leadership abilities. I made the decision to arrange play dates with other kids and praised Leo for sharing and communicating appropriately with the other children. During adolescence, Leo’s self-esteem was pretty high,
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
We all have different parenting styles. I think the first is authoritarian style and the other one
Were your parents always nice and lenient to your wants and needs or were they demanding and always had high expectations of you? Most people do not really think about what type of parent they are, it just happens naturally but after explaining two of the four parenting styles, it will certainly open a mom’s minds about which type of style they grew up with and which type of parent they are to their children. I am going to explain the similarities and differences between permissive and authoritative parents, this will help mothers identify which type of parent they are and explain the pros and cons of each parenting style.
Raising a child should be a parent’s number one concern, everything else comes after. The innocent life that is brought into this world should not have to go through emotional despair or physical hardships at any a young age. Not so long ago it was common place to put children through hard practices without giving regard to their well-being. This kind of child abuse goes as far back as a millenia, and only recently has it gotten the legal attention it deserves. Child labor is the most apparent form of child abuse and has always been a part of the United States. The dawn of Protective laws for children started with the end of child labor. We must continue to engineer these laws to counteract child abuse. Let us legislate laws and create awareness to make a country where children won’t have to recover from their childhood.
Tiger parenting is one way that Asian parents choose to raise their children. It is a typical upbringing in Eastern and Southern Asia. The term was originated by Yale law professor Amy Chua in her memoir, Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother. A “tiger mom” is a parent, not necessarily a mother, who holds their children to a high standard in academics, and also teaches them to play an instrument, common example playing the violin or the piano. This style of teaching might seem cruel to some individuals, yet there are some parents who choose to raise their children this way. They do this to either give them an opportunity out of a current financial situation or simply to strive for personal excellence.
What makes a good parent? People have always tired to find out the answer, because what makes a good parent makes a good family and what makes a good family makes a good society and finally what makes a good society makes the world we live in a good one. Actually it is family where all the social ills come from. It is family that predetermines what kind of society we will have tomorrow, because the society of tomorrow will be born to and moulded in the family of today. So if we want to find out what makes a good parent and try to change the society we'll be living in we've got to start right now. So let's start.

Children are the future of the world and need to be nurtured and educated in the best conditions. Thus, parenting is one of the most challenging and admirable responsibilities that people can experience. Parenting plays important roles in the development of children’s characteristics. Some people nurture children depending on their own ways. Others get advice from friends or books. Parenting can be divided into three groups: authoritative, permissive, and democratic parenting.
Being a parent comes with a lot of responsibility and difficult decision making. You always have your child's best interest at heart, but sometimes your child may disagree with the rules you have set down. That is why, I believe, the perfect parenting style is democratic. You can compromise with your child, but still have basic rules you want them to follow, without them feeling targeted or that you are being unfair. When i become a parent, I want to make sure my children have guidelines. I want them to be able to make their own mistakes and learn from them. Their health, their type of entertainment and the toys they play with are three major, broad categories that I would like to have a say in, along with their input of course.
