CHILD DEVELOPMENT PEDAGOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Authoritative parenting is characterized by reasonable demands and high responsiveness. While authoritative parents might have high expectations for their children, they also give them the resources and support they need to succeed.

Detailed explanation-2: -Authoritative. In this parenting style, the parents are nurturing, responsive, and supportive, yet set firm limits for their children. They attempt to control children’s behavior by explaining rules, discussing, and reasoning. They listen to a child’s viewpoint but don’t always accept it.

Detailed explanation-3: -Taken together, these two dimensions create four parenting styles: authoritative (high demandingness, high responsiveness), authoritarian (high demandingness, low responsiveness), rejecting or neglecting (low demandingness, low responsiveness), and permissive or indulgent (low demandingness, high responsiveness).

Detailed explanation-4: -Authoritative Parenting Authoritative parents are high on control and demandingness, and also high on responsiveness and warmth. They set clear standards for their children but accept “a reciprocal responsibility to be as responsive as possible to their children’s reasonable demands and points of views” [3, p. 46].

Detailed explanation-5: -Authoritative parents are both appropriately demanding and responsive. Authoritarian parents tend to have high expectations but may not be as responsive to their child’s needs.
