What will be an ideal response?
Authoritative parenting: high in warmth and responsiveness and in control.
Parents have high expectations for maturity.
Set standards and explain and enforce rules.
Use positive discipline techniques.
Children are more likely to be independent, self-reliant, cheerful and cooperative with adults and other children than is the case for the other parenting styles.
Authoritarian parenting: high in control but low in warmth/responsiveness.
Parents have strict rules and expect obedience, but don’t explain the rules as often as authoritative parents.
More likely to use negative discipline techniques.
Children are more likely to have internalizing or externalizing problems than children of authoritative parents.
Permissive parents: high in warmth/responsiveness, but low in control.
Parents have lower expectations for maturity than the other two types.
Children tend to be low in self-control and cooperativeness with peers and teachers and boys were impulsive and aggressive.
Uninvolved parents: low in warmth/responsiveness and low in control.
These children fare the worst of the three types in psychological adjustment and academic achievement.
