In the article, Parenting Styles by Kendra Cherry (2014), it lists four different parenting styles: authoritarian, authoritative, permissive, and uninvolved parenting. Cherry explained what each of the parenting styles consist of and also how they differ from each other. Each parenting styles affects a child in different ways. The four parenting styles either show disciplinary strategies, warmth and nurturance, communication styles, or examples of maturity and control.
The first parenting style is authoritarian. This parenting style is very strict and the parent expects the child to follow every rule and make no mistakes. You know that saying, “Strict parents make sneaky kids,” this is the parenting style that makes those “sneaky” kids. Authoritarian

Just like authoritarian parents, these parents have strict rules for their kids as well. The only difference is, authoritative parents are easier going and cooperative with their children. Authoritative parents are willing to listen to their child’s questions and are willing to explain why they have the rules they do. I feel as if my father is an authoritative parent. He is strict and expects a lot out of me but he is also willing to listen to what I have to say and the questions that I have.
Permissive parenting is the next one. Permissive parents have very few demands of their children. These parents rarely discipline their children because their expectation of maturity and self control is low. Permissive parents let their children live the life they want to live.
The last parenting style is uninvolved parenting. These are the ones that are not involved with their children at all. Uninvolved parents let their children do whatever they please. While these parents fulfill their child’s basic needs, they are detached from their child’s life. Children with uninvolved parents usually “act out” to get the attention from their parents. Children that have uninvolved parents tend to lack self- control and have low
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
In the early 1960s, psychologist Diana Baumrid conducted a research, analyzing child-parent behavior, seeking to identify parenting styles. The Baumrid study and other further studies identified four main styles of parenting (Miller, 2010): the authoritative parenting style was characterized by fair rules and consequences; The Authoritarian parenting style was characterized by strict rules and harsh punishment; the permissive parenting style was characterized by minimal rules with little or no consequences; the uninvolved parenting style was characterized by no rules, and parent presence was almost non-existent. In this paper, I’m going to look at the authoritarian style of parenting in an attempt to draw out its characteristics and its immediate and later impacts on children impact.
The four primary parenting styles are Authoritarian, Permissive, Authoritative, and Uninvolved parenting styles. Authoritarian parents are very controlling and strict with their children. They expect obedience form their children and don’t tolerate expressions of disagreement. In contrast, Permissive parents are more relaxed and provide inconsistent feedback. They require little of their children and don’t see themselves as responsible for their children’s behavior. They also don’t set limits or control over their children. Authoritative parents are firm and set clear and consistent limits for their children. While they tend to be strict they show love and emotional support for them as well. These parents tend to reason with their child as to why they should behave a certain way. These parenting styles also encourage the child to be independent. The fourth parenting style is uninvolved parenting style. These parents show interest in their children and display indifferent or rejecting behavior towards them. They detach emotionally and only see themselves as providers of materials goods such as shelter, food, and clothing.
Her three styles that she describes are authoritarian, permissive, and authoritative. The first one is the authoritarian parenting style is described as assertive, however indifferent to their child’s needs and wishes. An example of the authoritarian parenting style would be if a child did things without question, and did things simply just because a parent said so; however, the child may lack the nurture and love that a child should receive from the parent. On the contrary, the next two are both permissive parenting styles. There is permissive-indulgent which is described as very caring and nurturing, providing little punishment for their child.
Which parenting style will lead to a child becoming successful and stable in life? Many argue about the answer to this question. There are four main types of parenting styles. There’s authoritarian parenting which follows a set of strict rules and doesn’t necessarily nurture the child; apathetic towards their emotions, demanding a sort of blind obedience from the child. Authoritative parenting which takes a more moderate approach; setting high standards, nurtures, and responds to the child’s emotions. Permissive parenting which is reluctant to impose rules and standards, preferring to allow kids to regulate themselves. Finally, there’s the hands-off parenting in which the parent doesn’t involve themselves
by parents, and for the most part with children’s best interest in mind which is one of the main similarities. The parent does not choose a parenting style the parenting style chooses the parent. However, knowledge of the parenting styles and the effects of all three will help parents decide how they can raise their children in a way that is most
As I was reading through our course textbook, “Psychology: An Exploration,” by Saundra K. Ciccarelli and J. Noland White and listening through class lectures over the course of the semester, I found the topic on parenting styles in chapter 8 to be very interesting. I found it to be interesting because I can think on many life situations as a child that applies to this concept very easily, which I never realized before. There are three different types of parenting styles. The first style is called authoritarian parenting. Authoritarian parenting is a style when the parent constantly demands rules on their children and nothing other than rules. In our textbook it is stated that, “this type of parent is stern, rigid, demanding perfection, controlling, uncompromising” (Ciccarelli, White, 2013). An authoritarian parent is one that expects their child to obey their rules or else they would get punished; as I would say this style of parenting is when the parent believes, “is either their way or the highway.” The second style of parenting is called permissive parenting. Permissive parenting is the complete opposite style of authoritarian parenting. They are parents that have absolutely no rules in their household. Permissive parents are normally portrayed as parents that could careless about the concept of parenting. Permissive parents believe that without given rules and demands to their children, their children will be the happiest. This style can also, indicate neglectfulness
When disciplining your child remember that the strongest influence on your parenting style is how your parents raised you (Brimhall, 2015). The three parenting styles that Barumrind discovered includes authoritative, authoritarian, and permissive. These patterns parents display when raising their child can positively or negatively impact your child’s development. Parents who demonstrate authoritative parenting style are firm control on the child’s behaviors, but allow the child to develop autonomy. Unlike authoritative parenting style, authoritarian parenting style does not promote independency. Lastly, permissive parenting style is over indulgent with no
• Uninvolved parenting: children of uninvolved parents develop a sense that other aspects of the parents’ life are more important than they are. The child often attempt to provide for themselves, sometimes halt dependence on the parent to have a feeling of independence and mature beyond their years. Child from this environment often withdraw from social situations, this also impacts there relationships later on in life and they show patterns of truancy and delinquency.
Over time, many studies have achieved a common objective; to group parenting behaviors into related clusters called parenting styles. Parenting styles, according to a 2007 article in the “Journal of Education and Human Development,” are a mixture of demandingness and responsiveness. Authoritarian parents are
Parenting is one of the most challenging yet rewarding experiences in an adult’s life. Parents can greatly affect their children’s behavior and development. Children are like sponges, they soak up everything they see a parent do and model what they see into their own lives and actions. It is important that parents are good examples and set high standards for their children. Negative examples can be harmful to a child’s development and will usually lead to bad behavior. Baumrind, who studied parenting styles during the early 1960s, concluded that there is four important areas: parental nurturance, discipline strategy, communication skills, and maturity. Incorporating these areas, she posted four types of parenting styles: authoritarian, authoritative, permissive, and neglectful.
Parenting styles are as diverse as parents themselves. Parenting is one of the most challenging and difficult responsibilities a person can face. The way a family is structured is called the parenting style. Parenting styles are collections of parental attitudes, practices, and non-verbal expressions that characterize the nature of parent-child relationships. Because individuals learn how to parent from many different examples including their own parents, role models, society and life experiences. Parenting techniques can vary greatly from household to household, however, experts believe that parenting styles can be broken down into four main categories which include permissive,authoritarian,authoritative,and
The four different styles of parenting are authoritarian, democratic, permissive (or laissez-faire), and uninvolved. An example of the authoritarian style of parenting would be if the parents in a family never let their kids have a say in anything and they expect their children to never question their decisions. An example of the democratic style of parenting would be if the parents of a child debate a lot with them if the child asks to somewhere. An example of the permissive (or laissez-fair) style of parenting would be if the parents always let their children have the final say in decision making, such as a child always getting to eat junk food because that's what they want to eat. Lastly, an example of the uninvolved style of parenting would
Diane Baumrind lays out four parenting styles. These styles are authoritarian, authoritative, permissive and uninvolved. The authoritarian parent is a parent that has high
Often times, children of permissive parents are manipulative. This is because the parents submit to their children if they act out. Children of permissive parents are impulsive, the children do not learn how to control themselves. Children brought up by this parenting style “do slightly worse in school during adolescence and are more likely to be aggressive and somewhat immature in their behavior with peers and in school”
