4 Parenting Styles and Their Effects On You
Parenting styles have a significant impact on the development of a child’s personality and behavior. Each parenting style has its own unique characteristics and effects on the child. In this article, we will discuss four parenting styles and their effects on you.
Authoritarian Parenting
Authoritarian parenting is a style of parenting that is characterized by strict rules, high expectations, and little to no communication between parent and child. This style of parenting is often seen as overly controlling and can lead to feelings of resentment and rebellion in the child. Children raised in an authoritarian parenting style often struggle with self-esteem issues, as they are not given the opportunity to express their own opinions or make their own decisions.
Permissive Parenting
Permissive parenting is the opposite of authoritarian parenting. This style of parenting is characterized by a lack of rules and expectations, and a high level of communication between parent and child. Permissive parenting often leads to children who are more independent and self-reliant, as they are given the freedom to make their own decisions. However, this style of parenting can also lead to children who are less disciplined and more likely to engage in risky behaviors.
Uninvolved Parenting
Uninvolved parenting is a style of parenting that is characterized by a lack of communication and involvement in the child’s life. This style of parenting often leads to children who are less confident and more likely to engage in risky behaviors. Uninvolved parenting can also lead to feelings of neglect and abandonment in the child.
Authoritative Parenting
Authoritative parenting is a style of parenting that is characterized by high expectations, clear rules, and open communication between parent and child. This style of parenting often leads to children who are more confident, independent, and self-reliant. Authoritative parenting also encourages children to express their own opinions and make their own decisions.

So I'm a bit curious.. my parents punish me way too much and I need a way to tell them that they are making me have serious anger issues. I am 11 years old about to go into middle school and if I am going to have a decent school life next year and actual happiness without my parents pulling me down.. I need a good way to wage the argument I know we will have. Please help
My parents treated me like a disappointment when I came out as bisexual. And when I ask to buy LGBTQ books they say no because it’s LGBTQ and when I ask questions or speak up for myself, like if I am using the restroom, or when I try to show affection, they yell at be, call be rude ignorant and say I’m talking back when I tell them how they are being hurtful and they threaten to hit me, and yell at me when I cry saying I’m looking for attention, Yet they show me affection when I keep my head down, and stop talking and bury my anger and sadness inside when they turn me down when I try to be myself around them. What kind of parenting style is that?
thankyou so much
My mom is the “devouring mother” archetype. My parents in general are just..extremely self-centered. I think that’s the case for a lot of people. Literally, my mom only talks to me to ask for fucking money for booze or tell me about how HER day was or how bad HER coworkers at her job are. It took me five years to get a replacement for my only device, which was an IPad my uncle who I never met had gifted me. And yet they always made sure to purchase for themselves the newest phones and general technology, even with my mother buying my brother a 1k PC. Whenever my father comes home, he usually goes straight to his room and sleeps. He used to have a well-paying job but his department was let go, now he’s making a lot less money and they both just have the biggest most pathetic victim complexes I’ve ever seen. It’s never their fault but the fault of the people around them. They think they’re so much better than other people at their workplace and when they received fortune’s favor (my mom winning a 1mil lawsuit against a hospital for my younger brother’s death and my dad having a high-paying job in IT) instead of planning ahead, they assumed everything would just stay the way it was. It costed both of them, and they have no one else to blame but themselves.
I probably sound like an ungrateful kid or whatever, but I’m just so sick of the way they act. I’m not gonna act like I know what it’s like in their shoes, but if they were gonna focus on themselves, I’d prefer if my dad had just pulled out and saved me the trouble.
Isn’t it interesting how some of the more enlightened persons strive so hard to not be like our parents, and then some just simply turn out to be a carbon copy.
I knew as a young teenager I didn’t want to be much like my Mother. There were aspects about her personality I disliked. I’m curious to know if this was simply a more gravitational pull towards my birth father. My parents were separated when I was 1-yr old and I had a weekend daddy. My stepfather was more authoritarian and my birth father was more permissive. My mother just went along to get along. I’m fascinated how all three of my caregivers shaped my personality and I loved all of them.
3:50 you made an oopsie. Authoritative and Authoritarian are mixed up
What I've seen is kids with controlling parents also often end up out of control by the time they finally get control over their life's. Because they were never taught how to safely make their own decisions, think about their decision and how those might effect themselves and others. Because well, they were never taught to make decisions. And now they have no one to give them advice and guidance. They just have freedom. And they have no idea how to deal with that.
Where is the emotional manipulator mother?
My mom tends to switch between authoritative permissive and uninvolved
My parents are a mix of all of these
Your Parent is Your God! Even Jesus Christ and Father In Heaven submit to Parent!!! Submit!!! Worship your Parent!!! 😇😇😇 Especially your Mother, because she is the Higher Level… 😇😇😇
Mine were uninvolved. Not good at all. I didn't even tell them that I got married.
Both parents were authoritarian and they were very abusive(verbally and physically). It's true about when I turn into an adult I lack self esteem.. The messed up part is my parents don't see the damage they caused and how it affects me today
All, its changes in years for me
Authoritarian parenting .. And Trust me it made me under confident..clumsy..i cant talk properly..always saying something stupid..but now i understand what is my problem and im working on it to improve myself😊..parenting is very tough but people still eager to pop out children crazily.. Please STOP
I don't have plans to become a parent, but if I do, I've always told myself that I'll make a healthy balance between "warmth" and "control". Having two parents that are on opposite ends but don't know a balance between the two has been very hard for me
For me I feel like my parents are uninvolved and authoritative because I know my parents care for me but they show that they care for me in a strict way and it really affects me because anything I do they always get mad at me but don't tell me why they just get mad. They either say "WHY DID U DO THAT?" " STOP UR GONNA HURT UR SELF" "WHATS WRONG WITH U" and I really do wish they would be more nice because I'm always scared to make friends with people or make them mad because I'm scared that they will react like my parents
Honestly the authoritarian parent is wut I experience in the foster family program
Authoritarian father, Permissive Mom.
guess what not fun.
dad is trying to now get me to like him ya srry your 15-17 years to late
My mom was an uneven mix of Authoritative and Authoritarian depending on her mood, due to her own childhood trauma. My dad was both the uninvolved and permissive parent depending on his energy levels (works long hours in manual labor). I have severe anxiety and have depressive episodes with impulsive tendencies and had horrible self confidence for many years because I wasn't allowed to speak my opinion on anything with my mother. I'm also addicted to nicotine, but luckily never tried drugs and am not addicted to alcohol. I'm 27 and I'm still working through the damage my parents caused through their parenting styles. I also can't keep romantic partners due to my anxiety. I causes me to overthink to the point of exhaustion and then they leave because I'm not the same person I was when we first met. It also doesn't help that I get attached too quickly. It's to the point I don't enjoy dating anymore no matter how much I work on improving myself as a romantic partner and individual
I heard that there is also a rarely talked about fifth type of parenting. I don't exacly remember what it's called but something close to "over-present"/"over-controlling". Parents who use this type of parenting want to be present in every aspect of their child's life. They usually want to know, control, hear and see everything. Children mostly have little to no privacy and are like birds in a cage.
I feel like this is a very interesting topic but rarely talked about. Feel free to express your knowledge, experience etc. under this comment.
That right I was treat that way my mom just defend me at first and then she just gonna teach me a lesson but that lesson did not go that well now im here in my stupid sister bedroon
I loved how u matched it with the anime. İt sits them so well
Looook it's anyaaaa
My parents were actually a mix of authoritarian (my dad) and permissive ( my mom) and it makes a LOT of sense with my sister and me.
sorry for bothering but you also confused the authoritarian and the authoritative parenting style in the end haha 😀
My mom is the opposite of my dad
and i don’t know what that means
My mom is an authoritative parent while my dad is authoritarian. It's exhausting, and I always end up always scared of my dad to the point that when he's angry, I couldn't breath and feel like I am on a chokehold.
lovely, thank you
authoritorian is worst anyway.
I had one authoritarian and one permissive parent. I’m so lost.
Authoritarian parents & religion aka Jehovah's Witnesses
YES SPY X FAMILY
I love the theme!

Anxiety
Depression
Low self esteem
No friends
Not much attention
Never « enough »
But I don’t care anymore 🙂
My parents are kinda of a funny mix.. i mean, if you look at us from afar, they are definitely warm and still have fair rules about them… But it would be okay if those rules were only house rules or smt.. thing is, they have strict moral and religious rules they treat as essential… And, plus, if you break one of those, they (mainly my dad) turn to violent behavior, not commonly on me, but… Let's just say it's scary
My mother was permissive but was the "bad cop" when it came to any kind of discipline , my father was a generous authoritarian that was extremly tough on me & my sister but made sure we had the greatest childhood & transition into adulthood with all of our pitfalls through the years.
Authoritative and I think is the best one damn, I'm so proud
