Three common parenting styles are authoritative, authoritarian, and permissive. Authoritative parenting combines high expectations with support and responsiveness, promoting independence while maintaining clear boundaries. Authoritarian parenting emphasizes obedience and discipline, often with little warmth, while permissive parenting is characterized by leniency and a lack of structure, allowing children considerable freedom. Each style can significantly influence a child's development and behavior.
Children with greater confidence and self-esteem often result from a parenting style that is authoritative. This parenting style involves setting clear boundaries and rules while also being supportive and nurturing. It allows for open communication and encourages children to develop independence and problem-solving skills.
Research suggests that an authoritative parenting style, which combines warmth and support with clear boundaries and expectations, tends to lead to the most consistently positive outcomes in children. This style promotes independence, self-regulation, and social competence, while also fostering a strong parent-child relationship.
