Four Parenting Styles: Democratic, Permissive, And Uninvolved

116 Words1 Page

The four parenting styles are authoritarian, democratic, permissive, and uninvolved. Authoritarian is the strict family, it has many rules, and children must obey or they will face consequences. For democratic the parents have control, but give children some to say, fair discipline where the punishment fit the crime. Permissive on the other hand is the easy-going, it is the child (ren) that has all the control, and there might be few or no consequences for misbehavior. Uninvolved is like the invisible parents, for example they do not ask their child (ren) about homework or how was their day, they do not know where is the child, and they do not spend time with their child (ren).
