The parenting paradigm from the article that most matches Rex and Rose Mary Walls from Jeanette Walls’ memoir The Glass Castle is uninvolved because of neglect, reject and lack of communication (Cherry, “The Four Styles of Parenting”). Jeanette’s brother Brian fell of the couch, “Brain’s head was wrapped in a dirty white bandage with dried bloodstains” (13). This shows that Rex Walls neglected the needs of his child and put his beliefs before the needs of his child (Cherry). Rosemary was unobservant to Jeanette when she was burned (Cherry). Jeanette’s recalls her first memory when she was three years old, “I could hear mom in the next room singing while she worked on one of her paintings” (3). Jeanette’s mom left her unattended at the age

In the memoir The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls, demonstrates a certain type of parenting that may be uncommon. The Walls parents have a different type of parenting style. They want their kids to learn from their own mistakes, teaching them right from wrong. The certain parenting style that relates to them would be permissive parents. Permissive parenting, have few demands to make of their children. These parents rarely discipline their children because they have relatively low expectations of maturity and self-control (Cherry, The Four Styles of Parenting). The kids had to learn to fend for themselves on their own because their parents weren’t going to hand it to them. “None of us kids got allowances. When we wanted money, we walked along

Throughout the memoir The Glass Castle by Jeanette Walls all psychological premises of parenting paradigms are shown but the most fitted paradigm would be the permissive parenting paradigm because Rosemary and Rex Walls acted more as friends than parents, left their kids to self-regulate, and did not require mature behavior. Permissive parenting includes that the parent “act more as a friend than a parent” (Cherry, “The Four Styles of Parenting”) and throughout The Glass Castle there is many evidence that indicates this. In one scene Jeanette is describing the relationship with her dad and neighboring children, “Kids from the Tracks came knocking at the door, and when I answered, they asked, ‘can your dad come out and play?’” (59). This is a prime example of permissive

When examining the deep connections with the stars and the parenting styles of Jeannette's parents, It becomes apparent that Jeannette receives gifts wrapped up inside of the experiences in her life. When living in the desert, Jeannette experiences what Christmas is like having no money or wrapped boxes with presents inside. For Rex Walls, there is more to life than just material things, the kindness of individuals and beauty of nature is something that he likes to share with his children. Rosemary never lets any of her children believe in the myth of Santa Claus, Jeannette and her dad laugh about it. They also laugh at the fact that children receive presents that contain cheap plastic toys.

Peer pressure influences teenagers by making them do things they're not comfortable doing. For example, teenagers will ditch school because of their friends are, but they want you to go with them, so you ditch school because your friends make you or try to convince you that it will be fun along with you not getting caught. What i think Laurie Anderson the author of “Speak” is saying about peer pressure is that teengaers could actrully give into peer pressure, the teenagers think their not cool or good enough to fit in the popular crowd if they don’t give into peer pressure. Melinda is peer pressured to ditch school by herself because of her friends and everybody is going against her so she doesn’t want to deal or face any of the bullying, so she ditches.

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

In the novel Twisted, the parenting styles that are most exemplified by the Millers are authoritarian and authoritative. Authoritarian is a strict way of parenting, your expectations for your children is too high, and if they don’t meet it. They get punish for it, also this style parents really don’t try to hear your opinion because whatever they say goes. On page fifty-four, Tyler is trying to talk to his dad about his AP classes, but his father really don’t care what he’s saying because that was his final decision, so when Tyler tries to change his mind his dad burst out in rage. Here’s another example is when Tyler got in trouble by the law, because he was accused for taking picture of Bethany naked.

Parenting is not one of the easiest jobs in the world to have; you either are responsible enough to parent or you're not responsible enough.You have to be able to raise a child from birth and teach he/she all the necessary tools to succeed in life. As said in The Blackwell Encyclopedia of Social Work, “Parenting is the process of promoting and supporting the physical, emotional, social, and intellectual development of a child from infancy to adulthood” (245). All parents will raise their children in different ways, whether they are very strict or they’re lenient, others can be easy going and strict depending on the situation and the way they group up will shape them into who they become as adults as shown in The Glass Castle with Jeannette Walls and her parents.

Is choosing the wrong path to find the real you a bad thing? In a story generally the

In this novel twisted the parenting style that is most exemplified by the millers is uninvolved parenting. In the article about “the four styles of parenting” uninvolved parenting shows low responsiveness and little communication. For example “We waited for an hour, but he didn’t show. Mom had a fit then rescheduled if dad ever explained why he didn’t show up or call, I didn’t hear about it” (Anderson 86). Another example is when Tyler and Hannah get home from school school, no cooked dinner on the table , They always have to do it their self ( Anderson). Uninvolved parenting is also when the parents fulfil child’s needs but they detach from their kids life. “ Dad was looking rougher than usual, like he was training

The parenting styles that the Walls parenting show a permissive parenting style. They don’t take serious situations serious at all. “You busted your snot locker pretty good”(Walls 31). If they had set any rules, like “wear your seatbelt.” That wouldn’t have happened. Or the parents leave responsibilities to the children, setting no guidelines. “He told me he had broken into a neighbor’s house and stolen a gallon jar of pickles” (Walls 68). Once again rules or guidelines were set, letting him know not to do that. They don’t get punished for even the most serious things. “It was self-defense ” I piped up (Walls 89). This was after she shot an actual loaded gun at Billy. All those reasons point and show a permissive parenting style.

Hirshi (1969) expressed that the bond between parent and child had a large factor into the child’s delinquency; Gottfredson and Hirschi (1990) also believed that poor parental management leads to low self-control in children which would also lead to delinquency. In 1960 Diana Baumrind had identified 3 dimensions of parenting by conducting a study on over 100 preschool children by interviewing parents and observing the children’s actions by using four aspects: disciplinary strategies, warmth and nurturance, communication styles and expectations or maturity and control. As a result Baumrind came up with three styles. Authoritarian (demanding and responding), Authoritative (Demanding and unresponsive) and indulgent (undemanding and responsive. In 1983 Maccoby and Martine developed a fourth style, Neglectful (undemanding and unresponsive). Thompson’s mother was a violent alcoholic when Venables’ mother didn’t seem to play much role
