Characteristics of Authoritarian Parents
1. Tend to be very demanding, but not responsive.
2. They don't express much warmth or nurturing.
3. Utilize punishments with little or no
explanation.
4. Don't give children choices or options.
5. Have little to no patience for misbehavior.
Characteristics of Authoritarian Parents
6. Don't trust their children to make good choices.
7. They are not willing to negotiate.
8. They may shame their children to force them to

Effects on Children
The children of authoritarian parents tend to
exhibit these effects:
(1) They associate obedience and success with
love
(2) Some children display more aggressive
behavior outside the home
(3) Some children may act fearful or overly shy
around others
(4) Children often have lower self-esteem
(5) Children have difficulty in social situations due
to a lack of social competence
(6) They tend to conform easily, yet may also
suffer from depression and anxiety
(7) They may struggle with self-control because
they are rarely able to make choices and
experience natural consequences
Effects on Children
Because authoritarian parents expect absolute obedience,
children raised in such settings are typically very good at
following rules. However, they may lack self-discipline.
Children raised by authoritarian parents are not encouraged
to explore and act independently, so they never really
learn how to set their own limits and personal standards.
This can ultimately lead to problems when the parental or
authority figure is not around to monitor behavior.

Do any of these statements sound like you?
1. You put a lot of effort into creating and
maintaining a positive relationship with your
child.
2. You explain the reasons behind your rules.
3. You enforce rules and give consequences, but
take your child's feelings into consideration.
Authoritative parents have rules and they use
consequences, but they also take their children's
opinions into account. It is characterized by
reasonable demands and high responsiveness. While
they might have high expectations for their children,
they also give their kids the resources and support
they need to succeed. Parents who exhibit this style
listen to their kids and provide love and warmth in
addition to limits and fair discipline.
Children raised with authoritative discipline
tend to be happy, successful, good at making
decisions and evaluating safety risks on their
own.
Researchers have found kids who have
authoritative parents are most likely to become
responsible adults who feel comfortable
expressing their opinions.
Authoritative parents invest time and energy
into preventing behavior problems before they
start. They also use positive discipline
strategies to reinforce good behavior, like
praise and reward systems.
Characteristics of Authoritative Parenting
Style
(1) They listen to their children
(2) They allow their children to express opinions
(3) They encourage their children to discuss
options
(4) They foster independence and reasoning
(5) They place limits, consequences, and
expectations on their children's behavior
(6) They express warmth and nurturing
(7) They administer fair and consistent discipline
when rules are broken
While the expectations of authoritative parents
are high, these kinds of parents also tend to be
flexible. If there are extenuating circumstances,
authoritative parents will adjust their response
accordingly. Discipline, then, takes into
account all variables, including the child’s
behavior, the situation, and so on.
Effects of Authoritative Parenting Style
(1) Tend to have happier dispositions
(2) Have good emotional control and regulation
(3) Develop good social skills
(4) Are self-confident about their abilities to learn
new things
Authoritative parents act as role models and
exhibit the same behaviors they expect from
their children. Because of this, their kids are
more likely to internalize these behaviors and
exhibit them as well. Consistent rules and
discipline also allow children to know what to
expect.
They tend to exhibit good emotional
understanding and control. Their children also
learn to manage their emotions and learn to
understand others.
They also allow children to act independently.
This freedom teaches kids that they are capable of
accomplishing things on their own, helping to
foster strong self-esteem and self-confidence.
Permissive Parenting
Do any of these statements sound like you?
(1) You set rules but rarely enforce them.
(2) You don't give out consequences very often.
(3) You think your child will learn best with
little interference from you.
Permissive parents are lenient. They often only
step in when there's a serious problem.
They're quite forgiving and they adopt an attitude
of "kids will be kids." When they do use
consequences, they may not make those
consequences stick. They might give privileges
back if a child begs or they may allow a child to
get out of time-out early if he promises to be
good.
Permissive parents usually take on more
of a friend role than a parent role. They
often encourage their children to talk with
them about their problems, but they
usually don't put much effort into
discouraging poor choices or bad
behavior.
Kids who grow up with permissive
parents are more likely to struggle
academically. They may exhibit more
behavioral problems as they don't
appreciate authority and rules. They often
have low self-esteem and may report a lot
of sadness.
They're also at a higher risk for health
problems, like obesity, because permissive
parents struggle to limit junk food intake.
They are even more likely to have dental
cavities because permissive parents often
don't enforce good habits, like ensuring a
child brushes his teeth.
Parents who practice permissive parenting don't
discipline or impose rules; they don't want to have
any conflict with their children believe kids should
regulate themselves. They are warm and emotionally
responsive to their children, which is good; but they
are reluctant to set boundaries or control their
kids' behavior, which really isn't. They give in to
their kids' demands and ignore misbehavior, which
can have negative consequences for kids.
Research has shown that children who are
raised by permissive parents are impulsive,
disregard rules and limits, tend to have
escalating levels of aggression and a higher
risk of substance abuse as they get older,
and even have a higher risk of depression
and anxiety.
Permissive parenting is a type of parenting
style characterized by low demands with
high responsiveness. Permissive parents
tend to be very loving, yet provide few
guidelines and rules. These parents do not
expect mature behavior from their children
and often seem more like a friend than a
parental figure.
Permissive Parenting
Have few rules or standards of behavior and when
there are rules, they are often very inconsistent. May
use bribery such as toys, gifts, and food as a means
to get a child to behave. Provide little in the way of a
schedule or structure. Emphasize their children's
freedom rather than responsibility. Ask their
children's opinions on major decisions. Rarely
enforce any type of consequences.
The Effects of Permissive Parenting
1.Children tend to lack self-discipline,
2.possess poor social skills,
3.may be self-involved and demanding,
4.may feel insecure due to the lack of
boundaries and guidance.
Research has also suggested that kids
raised by permissive parents:
 Display low achievement in many
areas. Because their parents have little to no
expectations of them, these kids have nothing to
strive toward. Studies have linked permissive
parenting to lower academic achievement.
Research has also suggested that kids
raised by permissive parents:
Make poor decisions. Since their parents to
not set or enforce any type of rules or
guidelines, these kids struggle to learn good
problem-solving and decision-making skills.
Research has also suggested that kids
raised by permissive parents:
Display more aggression and less
emotional understanding. Because they do not learn
to deal with their emotions effectively, particularly in
situations where they do not get what they want,
children with permissive parents may struggle when
faced with stressful or emotionally difficult situations.
Research has also suggested that kids raised
by permissive parents:

May be more prone to delinquency and


substance use. Studies suggest that children
raised by permissive parents are more likely to
engage in misconduct and alcohol or substance
use.
Research has also suggested that kids raised
by permissive parents:
Unable to manage their time or habits. Because of
the lack of structure and rules in the home, these
kids never learn limits. This might lead to watching
too much television, playing too many computer
games, and eating too much. These children never
learn to limit their screen time or eating habits,
which can lead to unhealthy habits and obesity.
In one study, permissive parenting was linked
to underage alcohol use; teens with
permissive parents were three times more
likely to engage in heavy drinking.
Researchers also suggest that permissive
parenting is linked to other risky behaviors
such as drug use and other forms of
misconduct.
Children tend to grow up without a strong
sense of self-discipline. They may be more
unruly in school due to the lack of
boundaries in the home and may be less
academically motivated than many of
their peers.
Uninvolved parents:
1. Little knowledge of what their children are
doing.
2. Few rules.
3. Children may not receive much guidance,
nurturing, and parental attention.
4. They don't devote much time or energy into
meeting children's basic needs.
5. Uninvolved parents may be neglectful
but it's not always intentional.
6. Lack knowledge about child
development.
Children with uninvolved parents are
likely to struggle with
self-esteem issues. They tend to
perform poorly in school. They also
exhibit frequent behavior problems and
rank low in happiness.
There is little communication, lack of involvement
in their kids' lives, little warmth and responsiveness
to kids' emotional needs, and inadequate or
insufficient attention to disciplining kids or
supervising them.
Kids who are raised with this style of parenting
tend to be emotionally withdrawn, anxious and
may be at greater risk for delinquent and dangerous
behaviors as well as substance abuse.
Uninvolved parenting, sometimes referred to as neglectful
parenting
1. Lack of responsiveness to a child's needs.
2. Make few to no demands of their children and they
are often indifferent, dismissive, or even completely
neglectful.
3. Have little emotional involvement with their kids.
While they provide for basic needs like food and
shelter, they are, for the most part, uninvolved in their
children's lives.
Characteristics of Uninvolved Parenting Style
 They're emotionally distant from their children
 They offer little or no supervision
 They show little warmth, love, and affection
towards their children
 They have few or no expectations or demands for
behaviour
Characteristics of Uninvolved Parenting Style
 They don't attend school events and parent-teacher
conferences
 They may intentionally avoid their children
 They're often too overwhelmed by their own
problems to deal with their children
Effects of Uninvolved Parenting Style on Kids
 Children must learn to provide for themselves
 Kids may fear becoming dependent on other people
 Kids are often emotionally withdrawn
 They tend to exhibit more delinquency during
adolescence
 They feel fear, anxiety, or stress due to the lack of
family support
 They have an increased risk of substance abuse
Consequences
Researchers associate parenting styles with a
range of child outcomes in areas such as social
skills and academic performance. The children
of uninvolved parents generally perform poorly
in nearly every area of life. These children tend
to display deficits in cognition, attachment,
emotional skills, and social skills.
Consequences
Due to the lack of emotional responsiveness and love
from their caretakers, children raised by uninvolved
parents may have difficulty forming attachments later
in life. The complete lack of boundaries in the home
makes it difficult to learn appropriate behaviors and
limits in school and other social situations, which is
why children with uninvolved parents are more likely to
misbehave.
Research published in 2019 in the
Journal of Child and Family StudiesTrusted Source
found children of neglectful parents often:
 have trouble controlling their emotions
 are likely to be depressed
 have academic challenges
 have difficulty with social relationships
 are antisocial
 are anxious
