Identify one (1) television show or movie that depicts an authoritarian style of parenting, one (1) that depicts an authoritative style of parenting, and one (1) that depicts a permissive style of parenting. Explain the effect that each of the three (3) styles has on the children.
Ineffective parenting has so many impact on so many different levels; according to (Erikson, n.d.), “Theory of psychosocial development has eight distinct stages,’ ‘ According to the theory, successful completion of each stage results in a healthy personality and the acquisition of basic virtues. Basic virtues are characteristic strengths which the ego can use to resolve subsequent crises. Failure to successfully complete a stage can result in a reduced ability to complete further stages and therefore a more unhealthy personality and sense of self.” Hence, the need for effective parental presence for guidance of proper development.
Styles of parenting investigated for many years and it is considered important predictors of the child and adolescents development (Weber, Selig, Bernardi, & Salvador, 2006). Those styles of parenting are the set of behaviors that parents used for the socialization process in different cultures (Kobarg, Vieira, & Vieira, 2010).
Introduction The main purpose of this research paper is to find a correlation between parenting and their adolescent’s lifestyle and how adolescents react to the different parenting styles. Furthermore, peer affiliations and other social factors may be influenced by how parents communicate with their children at home. Parenting styles and trait emotional intelligence in adolescence by Evangelia Argyriou, Giorgos Bakonyannis and Spyridon Tantaros is a research study that goes into detail about how parental monitoring and parenting styles impact their child’s development.

The positively demonstrated authoritarian parent is strict. They have a set a rules and they demand their rules be followed. They don’t leave room for mistake and expect the very best for their children. An example of this type of parenting could be if a teenager arrives a few minutes late home from curfew. An Authoritarian parent would punish their teenager immediately and not find out why they were late. They simply see situations as black and white. A authoritative parent would be upset and worried and ask questions about why their child was late. Then they would come to a rational decision on whether it is punishment worthy. It could have been a flat tire, traffic, and miscommunication.
In many cases kids who live in a single parent household tend to turn and follow more the bad influence because of the lack of supervision. Parents are generally the most important people in their children’s lives. Their views and behaviors can have a good or bad influence on their
Becoming a parent is a task that cannot be taken lightly. It is a task filled with frustration, responsibilities and dedication, but is also filled with joy and satisfaction. From children learning how to behave to them going out with friends, rules, standards and expectations are set mostly by their parents. Parents make most of their children’s decision in the first couple of years from behalf from what they eat for breakfast from setting their curfew as they get older. As children began grow, they began to make their own choices and learn to deal with the consequence of their mistakes. However, some parents will try to protect this process which can harm their child by them not accepting responsibility on their own. An article by Dr. Nathan Lents has given the audience a view about those who tend to be overprotective parents are actually not
Consequently, parents have a profound and on-going impact on their child. When children experience failures, they automatically look to their parents when they need comfort and solace. A home in which the parental figures change does not encourage a child to trust. “This discourages the healthy development of trusting relationships which causes psychological damage such as heightened aggressive and anti-social behavior. It also inhibits a child’s ability to make wise and rational decisions” (Poulter).
The parents are responsive but not demanding (Sailor, 2010). They expect their children to think for themselves. A permissive parent tries to avoid confrontation and is lenient with their children. Children raised by permissive parents are raised with no self-discipline or control (Hughes,
Although independent kids consider that their parents have other responsibilities and they hold themselves accountable for sharing their parents’ responsibilities. On the other hand, coddled children have difficulties in making decisions, they do not want to do effort either as they know their parents will give them everything in the plate of gold. Hence, overprotected children do not have the ability to hold any responsibility.
Madison James Authoritative parenting is the parenting style that my parents used when I was growing up. Growing up with this parenting style I have become independent and self reliant. Some characteristics of authoritative parents include: listening to their child, letting their child express their opinion, encouraging their children, giving them fair and reasonable consequences, giving their child the opportunity to express their reasoning, having expectations for their children, and most of all showing warmth and nurture to their child. Both my mom and dad have always listened to me and never ignored me. No matter what they have always listened to everything I've ever had to say.
The parents are the most important thing in a child’s life. From the moment they open their eyes they are learning. One of the first things they see, hear, smell, and touch are their parents, children watch and learn from their parents. Children mimic their parent’s behaviour and actions.
Parenting is often judged yet rarely understood. One could be the ultimate parent AND the ultimate failure, all at the same time. The guilt of corrupting someone who is your responsibility deteriorates a parent over time. It is universally accepted that as we grow older we become a mirror image of our parents. Their values become our own, just as their parents’ became theirs.
Ceballo analyzed immigrant and U.S born parents using authoritarian parenting style to encourage academic success. She emphasized on the impact of parent’s commitment, facilitation of their child’s autonomy, non-verbal expression and access to supportive faculty, to academic success of a Latino student. Ceballos interviews U.S born Latinos/as who were from low-income families and who attending Yale University as the first in their family to get a college degree. Throughout these interviews she discovered that working-class parents viewed education as the primary source for social and economical mobility. Therefore they could not directly help with academic work but were more lenient on their parenting as long style as it benefited their education.
Morality is the principle concerning the distinction between right and wrong or good and bad behavior. One is not born with the ability to make moral and immoral judgements. Instead, as one progresses through life, they come across situations in which they are put to the test and must develop a system of values and principles of conduct. For example, one’s sense of morality might be tested should they find themselves in one of the following situations: “you pass someone in the street who is in severe need and you can help them at little cost to yourself,” or “Someone you have never met needs a kidney transplant. You are one of the few people who can provide the kidney” (Morality Play).
