Parenting Styles

Authoritarian Parent:children are expected to follow the rules that their parents provide for them
-The impact that it has on children is that they could have a more aggressive behavior, or they could be quiet and shy around others

Authoritative Parent:they still get some rules but their parents listen to the children's opinion or point of view
-The impact that it has on the children is that they become more responsible, and they respect their parents and they tend to have less problems with peers

Permissive Parenting:they don't have as much rules and let the children be a little more free
-The impact that it has on the children is that they don't learn much of problem solving, they low achieve, and they may behave more aggressively

Uninvolved Parenting:in this style they don't pay much attention to the children and they let them do what they want
-The impact that it has on the children is that they tend to emotionally with draw, and be in a more dangerous behavior


-I think that my parents are more of a authoritative parent, because they have rules but they aren't as strict. They let me go out sometimes they just need to know where and with who I am with. And I respect my parents even though I sometimes argue with them, and i try not to give them problems because I know they are going through a lot and I try to solve them myself.
