Different Types of Parenting Styles

Parenting styles refer to how we hold control and support our children in every aspect of life and also measure the behavioral and performance standards we expect from our children. Here we highlighted a detailed discussion that will help you make an informed choice.

Parenthood is a journey that is anticipated with much excitement, joy, and apprehension. When it begins, an amalgamation of instincts, childhood experiences and ideas are been received from fellow parents, friends, and other sources merge to create a distinctive style of parenting, which is unique to each parent and family.

As parents, we may acknowledge the actions of our children with great affection and motivation and offer sensitive support. Sometimes we may use commands, negative comments, and threats to assure that our children meet our expectations. Important areas on expectations include culture, values, roles, and practices specific to individual family units.

 

Parenting through cultures and ages

All societies and cultures expect parents to nurture and raise their children with good moral values. They provide various parenting practices that are relevant to their contexts. In India, our scriptures and ancient thought leaders define parenting rules and ways to instill codes of beliefs and conduct in children.

The nature of the family whether it is a joint family or the single nuclear family contributes a significant role in determining the parenting styles. However, both types of families set the same parenting goals, the joint or extended family focus more on cooperative relationships, as family members rely greatly on each other. The nuclear family indulges in a child-centered style with great emphasis on individuality, character, as well as uniqueness.

Importantly, the way we inculcate values in our children changes and develops over time as they grow older.

The research defines the parenting styles under cultural contexts into four main categories - Authoritarian, Permissive, Neglectful, and Authoritative.

Authoritarian Parenting - Controlled child

Authoritarian parenting or 'do as I say in which parent takes control over complete responsibility for their child, makes all the decisions of their life, and expects the child to be obedient and act following their decision. This is order without freedom. With no scope for reasoning, discussion, or negotiation, rules are being made and compelled entirely by the parent.

Probable outcomes

•The child learns to deceive conceal mistakes and circumvent punishment.

•Lack of support in making decisions leaves them weak and vulnerable to peer pressure.

•   The ability to acknowledge different points of view is being compromised. As a result, the child becomes judgmental which leads to rejection by peers.

•  He finds it difficult to trust his capabilities, as harsh parental criticism leads to lower self-esteem of the children.

• The outcome of frustrations resulting from all this is being suppressed that exhibiting passive behavior in the children resulting in anger outbursts.

• They become highly aggressive toward authority as a teenager.

• The development of critical thinking ability is weakened.

• Other likely consequences include lowered academic performance, poor handling of relationships, and long-term personality-related concerns.

Permissive parenting - Indulged child

The permissive parent is excessive indulgence being given to the child's demands, to safeguard them from disappointments. They are been permitted to bend or break rules without knowing about the consequences.

Probable outcomes

•   Making them decide their way all the time leads the child to expect the same behavior from peers, making them disfavored.

•  They will learn to disrespect and disapprove of rules and have difficulty comprehending the seriousness of such offenses.

•  They are ample with indiscriminate praise and develop an enlarged sense of self.

•  Since they are not expected to be responsible for themselves, consequently they will learn to blame their parents and others for their lapses.

•  They got authority in manipulating their submissive parents, feel entitled to be waited on, and defend themselves for shortcomings.

•  Deep down they feel anxious.

Neglectful Parenting - Abandoned child

The neglectful parent rejects responsibility for their children and raises them without proper guidance or care. No rules are been defined and no relevant parent-child relationship exists. The members of the family hold on to a disconnected lifestyle.

Probable outcomes

•   The child thrives on a stressful lifestyle.

•   He starts relying on anyone who shows him some care.

•   The child becomes vulnerable to anti-social influences or depression.

•  He or she feels completely lost and uncared for, causing feelings of sadness and emotionally drained.

•  The child weakened mental health will consequently affect his concentration and academic results.

Authoritative Parenting - Child-centered approach

The Authoritative Parent approves of equality more rather than relying on hierarchy and supports mutual decisions between parent and child. Rules are been explained and opinions and agreement are achieved through proper discussion, while the parent still retains ultimate authority. 

In other words, we can say there is freedom within limits. The parent uses incredible ways to teach their child to differentiate between good and bad choices. They are being encouraged to become resilient by reflecting upon and they learn from mistakes and keep trying. The authoritative parent supports and teaches children how to survive in the world.

Probable outcomes

•   The child gets to learn how to be courageous in handling what comes their way.

• They become self-motivated and work hard to attain goals through interest and effort.

• Their emotional stability is been enhanced, making them to better focused on academics and achievement.

• They learn to be assertive, value friendships and are cooperative, responsible, and caring.

There are various sub-categories of parenting styles. Here's we highlighted them.

Attachment Parenting

The parent is highly attached to the child's needs. The lifestyle includes extended periods of breastfeeding, constant nurturing touches, and letting the children share the parental bed. However, the concept behind attachment has been validated by research studies. But the practicing this style remains controversial and has not yet been corroborated by scientific studies.

Unconditional Parenting

The child's needs are being fulfilled unconditionally. It whirls around 'working with' the child rather than 'doing to the child. The parent's attention is not on the child's behavior and mistakes, but on loving the child in all ways.

 How Can Parents Promote Gender Equality At Home

Gender equality is one of the most discussed topics in our society, but you must have witnessed that the discussion never has an appropriate conclusion. Small things and remarks that people have made in their daily life reveals how huge this concern is prevailing in our country. People often exclaimed ‘Why are you crying like a girl?’ is a repeated comment when a little boy weeps. When a child is born, our society set different roles and boundaries for boys and girls. Even they define toys such as dolls and kitchen equipment will always  given to girls and guns and cars toys will  given to boys. As a parent, encouraging gender equality at home starts with you.

As being the first teachers of your children, you can inculcate values in them that will last forever. As a parent, let your children understand that a boy and girls should  treated equally in society.

From the very beginning of their life journey, children may ask questions about the physical differences between a boy and girl, which may make you feel embarrassed to answer and you may often avoid it. However, this is not the solution, make them understand and describe it in the best possible way. You can say that no two people in the world are the same. It completely varies, some may be tall; others are short, some dark while some fair. You should explain to them the fact that the physical differences exist between people or two genders man and woman because of nature, but that doesn’t mean they should treated differently. Everyone may treated equally with equal importance, opportunities, and fair treatment. Your child must acknowledge the fact that except for the physical difference, there should be no other difference in the raising of two genders. They must understand that universe has created them physically different, but their nurturing would be the same.

Why is it Important for children to learn about gender equality?

You can’t teach your children about gender equality only once in life and expect them to follow the same for a lifetime. It should be ongoing learning, a part of their daily life. Not raising your son and daughter equally can have adverse implications. Boys who are raised as the privileged ones in the family and have been given more opportunities, and freedom, grow up with a perspective that they are superior to the opposite gender in general. If a boy has been noticing since his childhood that his mother or sister is always been working in the kitchen, he will learn that it is the duty of a woman. Disrespecting and disregarding women would have become normal for a boy raised with this mentality. Domestic violence, and eve-teasing, are the fallouts of this type of mentality.

Sometimes, girls also start approving of gender-defined roles in society. They may raise h low self-confidence, and low self-esteem, and rely on the males in their family for protection. However, at this age, women should be set free, and they should work on their ambitions in their lives. If you want your child to grow up confident and kind, you must honor them equally. Teach your son if he does something wrong and then keep that the same attitude for your daughter too.

How to teach children about gender equality

 

Teaching gender equality to your children doesn’t need any special discussion or atmosphere. Let your children understand by observation. Some incredible ways have been dispelled here of how you can teach gender equality to your kids.

1. Be an Example

Just display the type of behavior you have been expecting from your children. As a husband and wife, you must discuss with each other with respect, discuss the household chores, and hold other tasks together. Let your children figure out that you work together with mutual understanding. Let them notice that it is not a duty of a woman t prepare dinner for everyone in the family or a man’s responsibility is only confined to purchasing groceries from the shop. When your children witness this, it will reflect in their attitudes as well. So, set as a good example.

2. Both are special

Don’t reveal preferential behavior towards either the gender or be cruel on boys and soft on girls or vice versa. Some parents raise their daughters too differently. They are already making their mindset that they are weak and need to be protected in all phases of their life. These parents are harsh on the boys. If you can condone the bad behavior of the son, don’t tolerate the bad attitude of the daughter either. Reprimand them or approve them in the same way for their bad or good behavior.

3. All household tasks are the same

Let the children get hold in the household activities as per their age, equally, irrespective of the gender. Let them help the workload with you, Both should be given some kind of work without pointing them as the girlie work and the manly work.

4. Watch your language

Don’t use offensive language in front of your children especially that disparages and belittles a female. Stop them from uttering swear words. Generally, the parents, especially the father, condone the bad language of the son. The son must be taught that it’s not cool and manly to swear and curse.

5. A successful Daughter is not a replacement for a son

The girl has her place as a daughter in the home. The typical refrain which parents have been using for a successful daughter with many achievements is, “She is not my daughter, she is my son.” Don’t these sound weird? saying so, you are validating her efforts and indirectly claiming to her that sons are better than daughters.

6. Teach your children to be independent

Teach your children the household skills such as cooking, cleaning, washing, ironing and mending clothes, and small repair work to survive when alone.

5 Myths for Dealing with Difficult Teens

 Sometimes our society tends to create negative presumptions about teenagers' behavior. We listen to all kinds of fallacies about teenagers from other parents, grandparents, and teachers, and have our own beliefs too.

But, saying all teenagers are the same is not the real truth. So, do not get surprised when your child feels uncomfortable when you or their grandparents alleged them of being “disobedient” or “uncommunicative” just because they are teens!

If you want to be the best and real parents for your teenager, it’s important to put all kinds of myths about them aside, especially with the “difficult” and “problematic” types of teens.

According to The Parent Cue, during the teenage period, it’s not unusual for parents to distance themselves from their teens when they should actually play their role and should establish even more good connections with them.

As parents, we need to comprehend the importance of flexibility and change and approve changes, not frown upon our teens.

One of the impeccable ways to attain this is by disregarding conventional “wisdom” concerning teenagers. By putting myths apart, we will get to know a vivid mindset of what is going on with your teen and will have a higher possibility of finding a solution together.

If you have been going through a tough time with your teenage daughter or son, there is no reason to worry as you are not alone, other parents are also encountering the same or similar struggles.

Whenever you felt overwhelmed and stressed because of what your teen did to you, just understand the essence of young adulthood from both a physical and mental perspective, and its significant impact on your child.

Your teens are just finding their place in the world and we need to support them to figure it out. But, this will not always be a smooth journey so be confident that you have the right equipment!

In this article, we will support you on your parenting journey by highlighting the 5 most common myths about dealing with difficult teens.

5 Main Teen-Related Misconceptions to Put Apart

1. Teens have no interest to spend time with their parents

Sometimes you may think that your teenager doe not wants to spend time with you, even though they are not feeling the same.

They will dedicate an immense part of their free time to indulge with their peers and friends, but this is not true that they do not want to develop good bonding with you and that you do not matter to them.

Taking into consideration, this is the phase of their life when they are exposing themselves through socialization.

Parents should not take this “distance” personally and accept the fact that you may not be their priority at this point of your teen’s life; but, remember that they need time with you as much as you want to spend time with them.

We need to stop being so unsure about taking this initiative for spending more time together with our teens. It’s our role as adults to support and appreciate your teen.

2. Teens' bad behavior

Although it seems like your teens are doing things just to upset you, the fact is your teenager has very less control over their “bad” behavior,

Your teens are not manipulating you deliberately or indulging a lot of time alone in/her room to come up with ways how to annoy you.

Your teen is a “victim” of different mental and biological mood shifts. The brain chemical changes taking place in teens would raise their impulsivity, susceptibility to peer pressure, and risk-taking.

These brain areas will continue developing until late adolescence. Though not every teen will strictly face these changes, they could be some reason behind their problematic behavior.

3. Teens will behave normally after being punished

Many parents start punishing their teens to teach them a lesson. We can use punishment as a last way when nothing else seems to help.

But, punishment, especially when more severe, will not go to improve or change your teen’s behavior and may worsen it in both the short- term and long term.

This could be the worse situation and may lead your teen to get more distant and may increase the gap in communication than before. Acting on the consequences from define boundaries is important, you just need to figure out the right way to do it.

 

4. Teens will make their actions better through reasoning

Though it keeps the argument less damaging and stressful and helps teens develop their problem-solving skills and ability to handle confrontation, reasoning will not always lead to a positive behavior change in your teens.

This is not just a common struggle among teens, but amongst adults too. For example, though we understand that fast food and a sedentary lifestyle are not good for us, we may not start following a healthy lifestyle from tomorrow, right? With teens, this is even more struggle because of the changes they are facing.

5. Teens want total independence

Yes, it’s true that teens love being independent and want freedom in every aspect of their life so that they can analyze their individuality.

However, although they want to become a soul person of/her own company, they still craving for your love, understanding, and support, despite not revealing it as often as they have been giving when they were too younger.

This is not the truth that your teen just wants to pack his/her luggage and going to leave home, and “become” an adult. They can only attain this freedom through interdependence.

What does it mean by interdependence? This is a strong connection during which parents and children completely rely on each other, i.e. both can receive and giving love and care.

Your teens may be more intent on cultivating their friendships in their teenage years and feel more connected to friends rather than adults but, this doesn’t mean they want to completely distance themselves from you.

 

 

Struggles between Parents and Teens bonding are Normal

 Parent-Teen relationship

Parents of teenagers or preteens should understand these conflicts, struggles with fads, music, and other efforts of independence are bound to happen in every family. Once they get to realize that, they can relax more and worry less about how their teenager is “turning out”. There will be higher chances that they will be just fine, and the challenging teen will turn out to be a responsible adult.

At an early age in children’s lives, parents play the most significant part in their world. Parents like, approval, love, and support are crucial to children. Consequently, most things that children do and say are aimed at maintaining that love and approval. As children get older and have more contact with other people than their parents, their behaviors and attitudes will be impacted by the presence of other people in their lives.

Facing Struggle for Control

When children grow young, many parents try to hold control over most aspects of their child’s life. These parents select every single thing of their children like clothes, friends, hobbies and so on. As children grow older, they think that they can never grow into adults without having parents' support and control over their lives. Consequently, teens begin to oppose their parents for control.

For every teen, this challenge of adulthood is hard and risky because they risk evading the most important aspect of their lives — their love of their parents. At the same time, parents may also feel rejected, hurt and anxious about their teens’ inabilities to take care of themselves. Their struggle is hard because they care so immensely about each other.

It’s Not Just a Teenage Problem and Concern

Both parents and teenagers are encountering changes in their lives. There’s a belief cultivating among professionals who are working with parents and teens that both adult problems and teen problems contribute equally to making these years harder between parents and children relationships.

Upon reaching middle age, many adults start questioning themselves how much their role has been done so far and how much they have to take it next. Some may get overwhelmed by a sense that they have not attained what they have aimed to personally or professionally. Others may get worried about what their children have been holding up and since they are leaving their home and they are forced to answer “what next ?” In these circumstances, the restless teen may add to parents’ feelings of ambiguity about themselves. “Good” parents would think not to have this struggle with their child.

Failure to Live Up to Parental Expectations

A common  problem that teens have been struggling with is that parents “want me to be the way they want me to be.” In other words, many parents want a good career, appearance, or college for their teen. These parents' expectations of their children cause resentment and sometimes anger because their children fail to live up to the way they have desired for.

Accepting teens to take their own decisions in life and how to be an adult in the world can be extremely diligent to do. But the healthy teen will grow up and do what they desire. Parents who disapprove of their teen for denying to follow the parents’ plans or who declined some vital aspect of their teen’s life may find themselves painfully isolated from these teens whom they care about so much.

Pacifying the Parent/Teen Crisis

What are some incredible ways parents can begin to break the cycle of disapproval with their teens? First, accept that teenagers must become independent to grow as an adult, just as they need to learn to walk and talk to grow from infancy to childhood. The first toddling steps that take away from the mother and the first hearing “No, I won’t” are the initial phase of growth and development toward independence, it’s the task of every healthy child.

If becoming self-independent is the task of every child, then the task of parents is to support their children to reach independence level by allowing them to walk, make mistakes and then slowly hold control over their lives.

Parents should figure out their roles and contribution in their struggle with teens. Sometimes parents should seek professional assistance to determine how they contribute to the struggle. Parents should learn new ways to cope with struggles in their lives, rather than indulging in the teen’s struggles in dealing with independence to get mixed up with their questions.

Conclusion

These behavior changes in parent/child relationships are bound to cause some struggles and stress in all families. Parents should not control every aspect of their teen’s life, but they can keep the conversation lines open with their teens and become role models for their teens to follow. The warmth with which mature parents reveal their relationships with their teens is evidence that the efforts to support and let go of their children are well-rewarded.

4 Effective Ways to be a better parent to my TEENAGER (Its PARENTEEN not Parenting)

 Being a parent is indeed the hardest part of your life. Being a parent to a teenager is even tougher. In this article, we will highlight how parents can connect better with their teenagers and how they can improve their relationship with their teens who seek a balance between disciplinarian and friend.

All connections and bonding in relationships are personal choices that need trust. We can force even though no relationships, it’s a slow process that requires tolerance and persistence. For a parent trying to establish a bonding with your teen, prove to yourself that you're willing to stick in this relationship, try new things, and be open-minded. Whether you're a parent taking care of your biological child, or you're trying to establish a good bonding with a foster or adopted teen, developing connections may often make you feel you're trying to recognize someone with a completely different lifestyle or background.

Even if you can figure out everything about your teen, when they grow older you may need to get to understand your children again without assumptions, judgment, or superficiality. At this point in life, your teen is seeking support and guidance from you as well as structure and discipline. There are three major things you need to establish a good connection with a teen: an open mind, a sense of equality, and a supportive attitude. Always keep these three attitudes towards your teen, and you'll have a strong relationship with them.

Here we dispel four effective ways to connect better with your teen.

1. Try to listen to your teen

Start by getting to understand your teen's interests, hobbies, and social and school life. If you find yourself unaware of those things, then just try to ask your teen. This is especially true for those of you who are trying to develop a completely new relationship with your teen, like foster parents or relatives. A big key to making your teen get open up with you is to find common ground. Start talking about your own life and what your social and work life are like with your teen. It’s unnecessary to pretend what you are experiencing is everything your teen is going through, but a great sense of relatability can do wonders to your bonding. If you don't seem to connect your feelings with them about anything, don't overwhelm them. This is a great opportunity to be quiet, calm, and just listen.

If you crave to get to understand you’re teen and why they are the way they are, you just have to listen to them what they're expressing without making it about you. Indulge more with them, ask questions about what they've said, and don't just try to force them to stop if they utter things you dislike or disagree with their opinion. Open-mindedness is a vital aspect if you want to develop trust and prove that you will not disapprove of them for who they are.

2. Respect your teen growth

 In our teen years, we still need ample parenting, but we are improving to balance discipline, guidance, and support. When we hear the same from our parents saying "When I was of your age things were pretty much harder than they are for kids today," it just disproves the experiences and struggles we are facing. TEEN really want you to handle THEMSELVES more like adults than kids and require admiration for the young adults we are becoming.

Teens are in a fragile state between childhood and adulthood as they understand independence and their own identity. "Parents' best guidance in this development phase is by 'scaffolding,' which is reducing their guidance and support and managing as their teen develops enhanced skills and mastery," In fact, parents ruling the position of authority in the family is considered part of encouraging healthy adolescent development."

Dr. Edlynn suggests that as a parent, you show admiration for your teen's enhancing skills and growing maturity so they feel you respect their growth and their increasing abilities to operate their worlds.

3. Be supportive and sincere

This needs an amalgamation of physical and emotional support, as well as financial when it's appropriate. As you've got to be supportive of your teen if you want them to get open up to you. Being physically present makes little sense, like showing up to their games or recitals. It also definitely doesn't mean that you are giving money and expect that your teen will trust you.

Supporting and guiding your teen means that while you're going to show up all support to them in the good moments and highlights, you're also paying focus on what they're struggling with and showing that you want to support your teens during the hard times as well. The parent should understand that it’s really difficult for a teen to open up when they're facing problems and struggle in their life. So this is the right time when you have to be patient. Try to make them trust that you're not going anywhere and that you won't disapprove of their opinions in every situation. Show true love and encouragement to your teen while they navigate life at this age.

4. Make available for them

Sometimes it feels like your teen is pushing you away, but they are actually longing for one-on-one time with you as per their perspective. Once you get to understand their interests and hobbies, suggest them and let your teen be decisive about what to do.

When teens feel indecisive or micromanaged, they can get offense and distance themselves. But if they feel you are interested in indulging time with them doing something they love, they are a high possibility to take you up on the chance to do something together. This can be an incredible tool for developing bonding and building shared boundaries.

Conclusion

Developing connections and bonding take time, just like everything else in life. Be patient, open-minded, and real and you'll get to understand that parenting a teenager isn't so harder after all.Just try to find common interest areas like hobbies,movies,articles,opinions with healthy discussions and questioning.

Y WE CAN'T FOLLOW TIMETABLE !!!

We can't prepare our timetable? nooooo, we can prepare it easily n then can't follow.U can also say that k then the problem begins :-).So much YYYY ys in life.
i feel its ur complex k no i can't do it !.I don have ability to do!,I have no such talents.
Actually these false faith or  u can say superstitions created wen we can't start or follow wat we planned for us.
But i feel k u don know how to start?
You don know reason of not following ur tasks?

Before that i wanna share u something about our mind.
Actually ,we have conscious minds( which includes everything that we r aware of.It includes thinking,talking n our memory which is always not part of conscious mind but can be retrieved wen needed) n unconscious minds (includes feelings,urges,thoughts n all we r not aware of).u can also say k OUR UNCONSCIOUS MIND IS LEADER OF CONSCIOUS MIND OR US.
The things or task which we can't do is unacceptable by our conscious mind. so, how much can we insist on our conscious mind i.e by planning....But,we can't execute as our unconscious mind always lead them  negatively or accordingly our habits have made it..Lets understand it by an example-We can't try to lift a 500 kg weight whereas can give a chance to 50kg or 70 kg.As our mind knows we can never lift 500kg so we don't try.Similarly our conscious mind lead us whether we can follow a task ?which depends on our perseverance n attitude.so we have to adapt anything or being habitual of , to execute any plan , timetable or task.

Just ans one of ma question k
Are u a good runner initially?Can u lift 200 pounds?Can a house built in a day?Can u run 5 miles a day?
Then ans is very surprising k YES U CAN !!!
U  just have to remember ur gym sessions or ur kindergarten classes.....
initially, u start there from a low weight or easiest alphabet A.similarly prepare ur timetable from least n relaxed hours to exhaustive not from maximum or exhaustive topics.Remember half kg dumbles u first lift in ur gym or think that how tough is alphabet 'A'.wats the reason behind it to start from that :-)
So just FOLLOW THESE STEPS :
a) Select the least disturbing time for studies or watever u wanna do.
b) Then, just try to b on time just seven days irrespective of duration.(if u r serious then this step will b turning stone)
c) Then, learn regularly or follow regularly ur steps also try to select a target or topic u wanna covered.
d) Daily give urself easy targets like one topic irrespective of duration. remember, a contractor works faster then a daily wager!
In this way ur time span increases n u ultimately get ur habit or achieve ur regularity n its time to prepare timetable.
