My mother was my primary caregiver throughout all of my childhood. While my father was in the picture for a majority of my childhood, he was also a severe alcoholic which greatly impacted my upbringing. My rules, obligations, and expectations were not always set in stone and did often depend on the time, situation, and/or mood of my parents. I think it is normal for parents to differ slightly in their parenting styles occasionally. As a young kid I remember my sister and I being very aware that the mood my mother was in greatly contributed to the outcome of a question or event. I think most, if not all of us can relate to this. Overall however, I would say that my mother had an authoritative parenting style. My mother made is very clear that she was the parent and in charge, however she was welcoming and understanding enough that I felt comfortable coming to her with questions or problems. My mom was also very encouraging and supportive. She always pushed me to do my best but never made me feel bad if I did not reach my goals. I was lucky to have such a great relationship with my mom, not everyone does. As a young teenager I had many friends who would come to me with questions and concerns because they knew my mom was so open-minded and understanding. My mom was always my parent first and my friend second. I knew what was expected of me and I was disciplined for bad behavior, however I always knew I could go to her with anything I needed.
My father, like many addicts was
Concept 2 - Parenting Styles There's three parenting styles there's authoritarian, authoritative, and permissive. An authoritarian parent is someone who is strict, imposing many rules and not nurturing. An authoritative parent is someone who is allowing discussion with the kids, placing limits and nurturing. An permissive parent is someone who is inconsistent with few rules and very loving. For me, my mothers parenting style is authoritative, she can be strict, being not too
We all have different parenting styles. I think the first is authoritarian style and the other one
Growing up my parents used the authoritative parenting style. They were warm but were firm. Communicating was not a one way street when it came to my parents. It worked both ways if you wanted the respect and freedom to be able to do things then
Personally, I feel like I was raised by authoritative parents. My parents set rules for my brother and I, such as curfews, but are often willing to negotiate if we communicate with them and keep them informed about what we are
My mom used the authoritative parenting style. She was warm and accepting. She was very involved in my activities. She would come to all my school events and plays. My
My siblings and I were raised with authoritative parenting Style. My nuclear family consist of my mother, father, older sister,older brother, and me the youngest Isaiah. My sister the eldest being 31, and brother of 26 I was always considered the "trouble maker" in the family because my siblings would always claim I was the spoiled one of the bunch due to the way my parents raised.. My parents became more experienced and more lenient with
My parents were a unified authoritative force, though my mom tended to be the disciplinarian and my dad the playmate. She was a stay at home mom and spent the majority of her time with us girls. My dad would come home from work and play board games, read, or dance with us. However,
In order to function, each family has a dynamic. I believe that styles of parenting are either formed or passed down from experience. My parents had very opposing views when it came to raising a child and they switched their views as time went on. The maturity levels and life growing up were extremely polar opposite between my parents. When I was born, my mother was twenty and my dad was twenty-seven and I think that played a key role in parenting styles. My mom grew up in a large house and had two brothers, where as my dad grew up in several homes and had three sisters. My mother had an authoritative style of parenting, while my father was permissive or uninvolved, depending on his mood.
During my upbringing, the parenting style that I have experienced would be the authoritarian and authoritative style. In life, my parents have been strict at times but lenient at most times. My parents have been the type to let me be free, because I was raised to be respectful towards others. Through junior high, my parents were very strict about what I did. In my home we had security and cameras. My parents didn’t like many of the people that came over to our home. There were times my parents let me go out and have fun but I had to have my homework done. I wasn’t antisocial in school but withdrawn. I wouldn’t blame it on my parents because I hated hanging around with friends. I thought the decision most of my peers made were pretty ridiculous.
When it come to raising kids people will never know how to do it correctly. The child will still throw tantrums, the teen will still give attitude, and the young adult will insists on going to a 4 year university. All children hit these milestones no matter what kind of parents they have. There are many ways to raise a child. Every person has a way of doing things that they deem right. Looking deeper in the process of raising a child or teen will reveal so much. “...keep in mind that every parent child relationship is different, so there is not one sure fire way to go about parenting.”( Rachel Telles, and Bianca Mgbemere.) Parenting is put into 4 general categories. Authoritarian, permissive, neglectful and authoritative. People fall into these categories, but there are a select few that don't. The two drastically different ones will be compared and contrasted. When it comes to parenting trying to find that happy medium between Authoritarian and permissive is the best possible thing to do for both parent and child.
Parent’s play a significant role in the outcome of the child. The style of parenting and family experiences a child is exposed to are vital to the outcome of the child’s behavior and attitude for all their life. Overall, there are four types of parenting styles: Authoritative, Authoritarian, Permissive, and Neglectful. Authoritative parents show a moderate amount of control and are very responsive and warm to the child. They show trust, open communication, acceptance, and show high levels of awareness (where their child is, who they are with, etc.) Authoritarian parents show high levels of control and low levels of warmth. They expect, even demand, hard work, obedience, and respect from their child with little to no response of acceptance or
Thinking back to my childhood I remember my parents using authoritative parenting. Each of us knew the rules and when broken we knew there would be consequences. However, now that I am aware of the other two styles of parenting and how each of the styles affect the children later in life my parents most certainly used two different kinds of parenting styles. With us girls they must have stuck with the authoritative parenting the entire time. With the two boys they at some point switched and began to use permissive parenting with them. If I wouldn’t have been raised with authoritative parenting I believe I would be controlling and not as easy-going as I am. When things don’t go my way I look at it as “What can I do to fix this?” and if there
According to Diana Baumrind's descriptions of three parenting styles, my father was authoritarian and my mother is permissive. It was my father who set up a schedule of weekly chores that I was responsible for completing. If I did not complete them, or if I completed them but not to his standards, I was physically punished. It was my father who forced me to take ballet lessons instead of the karate lessons I wanted to take when I was ten years old. His reasoning was little girls didn't take karate lessons, and what he said was final. There are several other examples of his "my way or the highway" parenting but the memories are not pleasant for me. My mother is permissive in her parenting. She let my father set the rules but she didn't enforce
Throughout my entire life my mom has shaped who I am as an individual and how I act and how I treat other people. Ever since I was a baby in diapers I can remember my mom being the person who always tell me right and wrong. I feel like my mom has high expectations of everything I do and how I act, but I think that is a good thing. She just wants me to be a good person, what is best for me and I really think that defines her character. Somebody who always wants to do the best thing and tries to make the best of every situation.
96% of authoritative parents love their children unconditionally, while permissive parents are at 89% and authoritarians are at 31%. Parenting styles have a enormous say in how your children will grow up. How you prefer to raise your children basically boils down to three major groups. Those are the authoritarian, authoritative, and permissive. Although there are five styles of parenting, those are the most commonly adopted. Authoritarian parents tend to have the “I have complete dominance over you” thinking. Permissive parents are, the more laid back parents who do not long to upset their children. The parents who have high standards, but provide their children with the resources they need to succeed are the authoritative parents.
