The best one is switching between all 3 depending on the need of the situation. But as most situations and generalizations go, the best is democratic parenting. It doesn't spoil or threaten the child.
In recent times, parenting advice and help has been made more available. There is a saying which once rang very true: "Children do not come with an instruction manual." While this is still true, there are many experts offering programs and advice on how to raise children and conflicting ideas on which parenting styles are most effective. When determining the best parenting style, it is important to base this decision on the personality of the child. Each child is different and what works for one child may not be effective for another.
A neglectful parenting style is least effective during adolescence.

There are many different types of parenting styles. Some parents co-sleep, others don't. Some parents do attachment parenting, others don't. Co-sleeping is a decent parenting choice. Attachment parenting for some people, is not. My opinion is that positive parenting works best.

There is no best leadership style. What is considered the best leadership style will vary from person to person. What works well for someone in one leadership style may not for the next person.

authoritative
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.
