Answer 1

1. D. Authoritative

Authoritative parents have high expectations for achievement and maturity, but they are also warm and responsive.

These parents set rules and enforce boundaries by having open discussion and using reasoning.

They are affectionate and supportive and encourage independence.

This parenting style is also known as Democratic Parenting Style.

children of authoritative parents are:

• Appear happy and content.
• Are more independent.
• Achieve higher academic success.
• Develop good self-esteem.
• Interact with peers using competent social skills.
• Have better mental health — less depression, anxiety, suicide attempts, delinquency, alcohol and drug use.
• Exhibit less violent tendencies.

authoritarian parents demand blind obedience using reasons such as “because I said so“.

These parents use stern discipline and often employ punishment to control children’s behavior.

Authoritarian parents are unresponsive to their children’s needs and are generally not nurturing.

Children of authoritarian parents:

• Tend to have an unhappy disposition.
• Are less independent.
• Appear insecure.
• Possess lower self-esteem.
• Exhibit more behavioralproblems.
• Perform worse academically.
• Have poorer social skills.
• Are more prone to mental issues.
• Are more likely to have drug use problems.

Permissive parents set very few rules and boundaries and they are reluctant to enforce rules.

These parents are warm and indulgent but they do not like to say no or disappoint their children.

Children of permissive parenting:

• Cannot follow rules.
• Have worse self-control.
• Possess egocentric tendencies.
• Encounter more problems in relationships and social interactions.
