Parenting styles where brought up a lot in class. As discussed in class there are four types of parenting styles and they are: authoritarian, authoritative, permissive, and unresponsive or neglected. We discussed the qualities that each parenting holds and how they affect the children. When we talked about authoritarian parent style, the first person that came to mind was Red Forman from the television show That 70 Show. It is one of my favorite shows, and one would argue that Red is a great example of authoritarian parent based on his controlling over his son Eric and his unconditional love towards him. Every time Eric makes Red mad, Red would reply to Eric about how he will shove his foot in his ass. Learning about the different parent

When I was a child I recall some moments of me being spanked, specifically getting hit by the belt from my father. According to my father I got the hit by the belt more than my brothers because he realized hitting me with the belt wasn’t the best way to discipline me. Whenever my brothers and I did get in trouble, my father would take away the video games. I grew with authoritative parents, both my parents had high expectations of me and my brothers. My parents wanted my brothers and I to do our best by receiving A’s in our report card. I did not have the privilege like most Americans whose parents would help their children with homework and projects. However, that did not stop my parents from motivating us to do well. My parents supported my education by supplying the tools I need to succeed in school. I never asked my dad to buy videogames because I knew he would not buy it, my dad had a rule when it came for asking things to buy. If it wasn’t for school or health, he would not buy it. Although, it was only when I did well in school, by the end of each report card pick up we would go out to eat in a restaurant. It was rare that we eat out unless it is a special education, otherwise we would eat at home. I didn’t mind it, because both my parents are chefs and I enjoy their …show more content…
Growing up we had numerous pets. We had birds, turtles, lizards, and dogs. I learn to love animals growing up, my appreciating didn’t stop as later on in high school I join the Pet Club and basically a club focused about teaching others how to take care of pets. During holidays such as summer my parents were alright of me taking care of the school’s animals. So I had snakes, chinchillas, and guinea pigs over at my house. This is important because I wouldn’t be this extraverted when it came to interacting with animals if I had parents who did not like pets or was just allergic to dogs. I pondered on this idea because I know my aunt who hates dogs for some reason, my cousins on the other hand love dogs, Whenever, they come over to visit us they sneak away from the mother to pet my dogs. They know that the mother will spank them if she caught them petting the dogs. However, my uncle is different, encourages the kids to interact with my dogs because he knows they would not have the same opportunity when they go home. My aunt is very controlling but my uncle is kind of the opposite, promotes exploration. My uncle usually works but makes time for the children, he is the breadwinner meanwhile my aunt is stay home
