Parenting style

What kind of parenting style did your parents use? Do you recall having many conflicts with them? How do you feel your relationship with your parents shaped who you are now?

Full Answer Section Here is a brief overview of the different parenting styles:
  • Authoritarian parenting: This style is characterized by high levels of control and low levels of warmth. Authoritarian parents are strict and demanding, and they expect their children to obey their rules without question.
  • Authoritative parenting: This style is characterized by a balance of control and warmth. Authoritative parents are firm but fair, and they explain their rules to their children. They also allow their children some freedom to make their own decisions.
  • Permissive parenting: This style is characterized by low levels of control and high levels of warmth. Permissive parents are very lenient, and they allow their children to do whatever they want.
  • Uninvolved parenting: This style is characterized by low levels of control and warmth. Uninvolved parents are neglectful, and they do not provide much guidance or support to their children.
I believe that the authoritative parenting style is the most effective parenting style. It allows children to learn the importance of discipline and respect, while also providing them with love and support.
