A parent can approach their child in many different ways during many different situations. How a parent reacts to a child can affect the child’s attitude and emotions in the moment but also in the long run. Psychologists have discovered different parenting styles in which how a parent interacts with their child or children. There are four different types of parenting styles which are authoritarian, authoritative, permissive, and neglectful. An authoritative parent is best known as a parent who shows respect, is accepting and has a lot of communication with their child.…

Therefore, selecting the correct parenting style will influence your children future.…
The first parenting style that will be discussed is the authoritarian parenting style. Authoritarian parenting is characterized by behaviors that are highly limiting and tremendously demanding. Authoritarian parents are neither warm nor responsive to their children and have high maturity demands for their children due to the fact that they are intolerant of selfishness or inappropriate behavior (Marsiglia et.al. 2007; Spera, 2005). The authoritarian parenting style is associated with parents who emphasize obedience and conformity and expect that rules be obeyed without explanation in a less warm environment (Hoskins, 2014).…
After reading Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother, the author goes on to tell how parenting can sometimes be a difficult thing depending on the background of which the child has grew up in. The article also goes on to depict how a child growing up with a different culture could have a authoritarian child-rearing style, where the parent tells the child exactly what to do and make the decisions for their child. This parenting style could result in the child not getting as much freedom as another child from a different child who grew up in a totally different background. For example, a child who grew up in the United States, could have a parent who follows the authoritative child-rearing style to where the can be strict but lenient towards their child…
My parents used an authoritative style of parenting. They were always supportive of me and always seemed to know when to get involved and when to leave me alone. I was seldom punished. What would happen instead was that my dad would scream at me for something bad that I have done and tell me how I would be punished. However, my dad would then apologize and say that I was not punished.…
I believe my parenting style was influenced by the household where I grew up. I was raised by authoritarian parents. I tried to take in account what I learned from our developmental class, but I think instinct took over. I used methods that I needed to help her develop correctly but the discipline I believed I learned from my own…
The types of parenting style that parents provide for their children may affect their development in a positive or negative way. Authoritative parenting is known for promoting satisfactory effects throughout the children’s lifespan. When parents use the authoritative parenting style, they tend to be high in demandingness and high in responsiveness (Arnett, 2015). This means that parents provide specific rules for their children to follow. Moreover, they make sure to let their children know what the consequences can be if they do not obey rather than punishing them.…
Authoritative parenting is the most effective parenting style. I fully agree with this type of parenting type because this parenting style acts as role models and show the same behavior they want their kids to act. “That certain kinds of parental control are more effective and produce better result” (Balswick’s & Balswick’s, 2014). There have been research that study the different types of parenting and how it impact on children according to ethnicity and gender of the parent (Balswick’s & Balswick’s, 2014).…
Parenting styles play a critical role in the development of a child. In fact, research shows that parenting styles can impact a child’s social, cognitive, and emotional growth. Children are shaped through the parental acts of motivation, interaction, and exchange throughout their childhoods. The results of these acts will either be negative or positive, and this influence can carry on well into adulthood. While there are several classifiable parenting styles, this research is going to focus on the Authoritative style of parenting, which actually is considered a combination of both Authoritarian and Permissive parenting styles.…
Parenting style has a major impact on child development as experiences from childhood have a lasting impact on the emotional well-being of a child. Several studies have demonstrated the effects of parenting style on both a child’s emotional development and behavior. Identified by Diana Baumrind in the mid-1960s, there are three parenting styles including authoritative, authoritarian, and permissive which define the attitudes of parents towards their children. Each style brings about different positive or negative characteristics in children, with authoritative parenting proving to be the most positive and permissive being the most negative. Based on my research, I believe that the relationships we have with our parents greatly influences our…
I cannot seem to define either f my parents under one category, because they exerted a blend of parenting styles. On the one hand, my mother has always been my best friend, emulating a permissive style, but when it is necessary she implements an authoritative style, expecting only the best but understanding when I don’t reach her expectations and helping me in any possible way she can. On the other hand, my dad held a somewhat authoritarian style when I was younger expecting the utmost respect and immediate obedience with no questioning. However, as I grew older he mellowed a bit and was also an authoritative figure like my mother, expecting for me to do well, but always supportive when things didn’t go right. They both implemented very simple rules for my sister and I, if we wanted to go out with friends we had to bring home good grades, when we go out we have a curfew only based on our safety, and small things like that.…
This week’s lesson was a very emotional one for me. What really stood out the most was correlating parenting styles to children’s behavior; there were so many things that were relatable. When reading the definitions of different parenting styles, I identified that my parents were authoritarian parents. “Authoritarian parents are extremely strict, have high demands, and use the treat of physical punishment to control their children. They tend not to allow their children to have input into their world”…

As I learn more about life span development, it begins to move towards socioemotional, physical, and cognitive development in infancy, early childhood, middle, and late childhood. There were many concepts and theories that have provided me with a better understanding about the way I was growing up as a child, attending elementary and junior high school. I can easily look back and see how some of these concepts and theories reflect upon my life. It is always interesting for me to learn about the different developments of life, especially when I have already lived through those age stages. I am never disappointed with what I learn in this course.…
