Parenting
There are three types of parenting

  • Authoritarian (authoric)- The parent has maximum control over the child. The parents and child interaction is not the give and take of a developing relationship, but its mostly of giving of orders. If the rules are broken or violated the discipline is severe and physical  
  • Permissive (Doormat)- The parents minimize any control. These children are encouraged to make their own decisions and develop their own independence with few or no parental constraints or guidance. The parent child relationship consist of the parent approving whatever the child decides to do.   
  • Active (Authoritative)- They put boundaries on acceptable behavior with warm and accepting context. There is a good parent-child interaction which is generally characterized by affection, give and take but relatively clear expectations for the child's behavior.
