Course Overview

Authoritative Parenting

Authoritative parenting is characterized by high expectations for achievement and maturity, combined with warmth and responsiveness. This parenting style involves:

– Setting clear rules and boundaries

– Open communication and active listening

– Providing guidance and reasoning for actions

– Supportive disciplinary styles

– Encouraging autonomy and independence

Children raised with authoritative parenting tend to be friendly, energetic, self-reliant, self-controlled, curious, cooperative, and achievement-oriented.

Authoritarian Parenting

High demands and low levels of warmth characterize authoritarian parenting. This parenting style features:

– Strict rules and high expectations

– Little to no negotiation or compromise

– Harsh discipline and punishment

– Low emotional responsiveness

Children raised with authoritarian parenting may struggle emotionally, academically, and socially, often displaying signs of aggression, low self-esteem, and poor self-confidence.

Permissive Parenting

Permissive parenting is characterized by warmth and laxity, with parents failing to set firm limits or monitor their children’s activities closely. This parenting style involves:

– Few rules and boundaries

– High levels of warmth and responsiveness

– Little to no enforcement of rules or expectations

– Indulging children’s desires and whims

Children raised with permissive parenting tend to be impulsive, rebellious, aimless, domineering, aggressive, and low in self-reliance, self-control, and achievement.

Uninvolved Parenting

Uninvolved parenting is characterized by low levels of both responsiveness and demandingness. This parenting style involves:

– Little to no emotional support or nurturing

– Minimal involvement in children’s lives

– Lack of clear expectations or rules

– Neglecting children’s needs

Children raised with uninvolved parenting often have low self-esteem, and little self-confidence, and struggle with emotional and social development.
