Describe the three parenting styles classified by Baumrind, the type of discipline approach(es) used in each style, and the effects of each parenting style on the children's social and emotional development

What will be an ideal response?

Answer will include that authoritarian parents enforce rigid rules and demand strict obedience to authority. Typically they view children as having few rights but adult-like responsibilities. The child is expected to stay out of trouble and to accept, without question, what parents regard as right or wrong ("Do it because I say so"). Authoritarian parents tend to discipline their children through power assertion, that is, physical punishment or a show of force, such as taking away toys or privileges. Power-oriented techniques, particularly harsh or severe physical punishment, are associated with fear, hatred of parents, and a lack of spontaneity and warmth. As an alternative, authoritarian parents may use withdrawal of love, or withholding affection, by refusing to speak to a child, threatening to leave, rejecting the child, or otherwise acting as if the child is temporarily unlovable. The children of authoritarian parents are usually obedient and self-controlled. But they also tend to be emotionally stiff, withdrawn, apprehensive, lacking in curiosity, and dependent on adults for approval. They can also develop low self-esteem. Low self-esteem is related to physical punishment and the withholding of love. Overly permissive parents give little guidance, allow too much freedom, or don't hold children accountable for their actions. Typically, the child has rights similar to an adult's but few responsibilities. Rules are not enforced, and the child usually gets his or her way ("Do whatever you want"). Permissive parents tend to produce dependent, immature children who misbehave frequently. Such children are aimless and likely to "run amok.". Some overly permissive parents genuinely wish to "empower" their children by imposing few limits on their behavior, making them feel special, and giving them everything they want. But such good intentions can backfire, leaving parents with children who have developed an artificially high level of self-esteem and a sense of entitlement. That is, overly "empowered" offspring are often spoiled, self-indulgent, and lack self-control. Baumrind describes authoritative parents as those who supply firm and consistent guidance, combined with love and affection. Such parents balance their own rights with those of their children. They control their children's behavior through management techniques, which combine praise, recognition, approval, rules, reasoning, and the like to encourage desirable behavior. Effective parents are firm and consistent, not harsh or rigid. In general, they encourage the child to act responsibly, to think, and to make good decisions. This style produces children who are resilient
