So rather than teach a child how to make better choices, they're invested in making kids feel sorry for their mistakes. Children who grow up with strict authoritarian parents tend to follow rules much of the time, but their obedience comes at a price. Children of authoritarian parents are at a higher risk of developing self esteem problems because their opinions and their perspectives aren't valued. They may also become hostile or aggressive and rebel

At other times, uninvolved parents lack knowledge about a child's development, and sometimes they're simply overwhelmed with problems like work, paying the bills, and managing a household. Children with uninvolved parents are likely to struggle with self esteem issues as well. They tend to perform poorly in school, and they exhibit frequent behavior problems and rank low in happiness. Do not be surprised that if you had a different Laura parenting styles, different phases in your life

It's continuing on. Sometimes parents don't fit into just one category, so don't be surprised if there are times or areas where you tend to be permissive and other times when you're more authoritative or authoritarian. It is hard to remain consistent when balancing life and parenting. Don't engage in parent guilt or shame, please. That's not helpful. The studies are clear, however, that authoritative parenting, not authoritarian, but authoritative parenting is the best parenting style
