Different Parenting Styles Explained

There are four recognized parenting styles, explained below:

Authoritarian parenting

What some might call “regimental parenting” or “strict parenting.”

Parents with this style focus on strict rules, obedience and discipline.

Authoritarian parents appropriate decision-making power, rarely giving children a voice in matters.

When it comes to rules, you think it's “my way or the highway.”

Permissive parenting

Often referred to as “gentle parenting” or “yes moms/dads”.

Permissive parents are lenient and only intervene when there is a serious problem.

They are quite forgiving and adopt a “kids will be kids” attitude.

Often they act more like friends than authoritative figures.

Authoritative Parenting

Authoritative parents impose rules and limits on their children, but they also give them the freedom to make decisions.

With an authoritarian parenting style, parents validate their children's feelings while making it clear that adults are ultimately in charge.

They use positive reinforcement techniques, such as praise and reward systems, as opposed to harsh punishments.

Neglectful or uninvolved parenting

Essentially, neglectful parents ignore their children, who receive little guidance, education, and parental attention.

They don't set rules or expectations and tend to have little knowledge about what their children are doing.

Uninvolved parents expect their children to raise themselves. They don't spend much time or energy meeting children's basic needs.

Uninvolved parents can be neglectful, but it's not always intentional. A parent with mental health or substance abuse issues, for example, may not be able to consistently meet their child's physical or emotional needs.

Not only that, but one TikTok user shared, “Maybe you shouldn't mom shame at any age.” 18/30, who really cares? »

To this, Esmie clapped back and wrote: “I'm not shaming anyone.

“People shame me for being a teen mom [but] This is not to shame anyone.
