CHILD DEVELOPMENT PEDAGOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -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-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: -Authoritarian parents believe kids should follow the rules without exception. Children of authoritarian parents are at a higher risk of developing self-esteem problems because their opinions aren’t valued.

Detailed explanation-4: -Summed up, some researchers have described it this way: Authoritative parents are highly demanding (like authoritarian parents), but they are also very responsive to their children’s needs (Maccoby and Martin 1983).
