Chapter 1
Parenting styles:
▪ Dictatorial or authoritarian
o Super strict parents, it’s their way or the highway
o Parents try to control their child’s behaviors through unquestioned rules or
expectations
o Ex. the child is never allowed to watch tv on a school night
▪ Permissive
o Very laid back, allow children to set their rules
o Parents exert very little control over their child’s behaviors; consult the child
when making decisions
o Ex. the child assists in deciding whether or not they can watch tv on a
school night
▪ Democratic or authoritative
o Right in the middle, not too strict but also not too permissive
o Parents direct the child’s behaviors by setting rules and explain the reason
behind them
o Parents negatively reinforce deviations from the rules and may do so by
taking privileges away
o Ex. the child can watch tv for 1 hour on school nights as long as their
homework is done
▪ Passive parents
o Do not care what is going on, don’t even consult with the children.
Uninvolved, indifferent or emotionally removed
