•The fascinating and not always easy path of raising and
educating children is conditioned by multiple factors .
Broadly speaking, we would have, on the one hand,
genetics and everything that every human being carries
"as standard" and, on the other, the influence of the
environment . Today we talk about parenting styles,
what they are and how science says they influence the
development of children.

5. • What are parenting styles and what do they consist of?
• Although we are born with particular basic characteristics, the
environment also plays a fundamental role in the development of the
person . Thus, during childhood and adolescence, the role that
parents establish in the family framework will be crucial for the
development of children and adolescents .
• We call the way we relate to them parenting style . This way of
relating would include how we transmit our principles and values ​​to
them, as well as attitudes, roles and habits as those responsible for
their care and safety.
• Given that not all parents relate to our children in the same way,
could we establish a classification depending on the parenting style?
What are parenting styles?

6. • What are the four parenting styles?
• Let's see what characteristics each of them have and what are the repercussions on the
children according to the empirical evidence that we have.
• Parenting styles and their impact on child development
• 1. Authoritarian parents
• They are demanding and severe parents . They tend to behave in a rigid way to control
the behavior of children in such a way that they are inflexible in complying with the rules
.
• For these fathers and mothers , discipline, obedience and authority are essential , so they
impose rules that must be followed.
• They use punishment as a control tool and do not accompany their children emotionally.
This fact hinders the creation of affective bonds . The children of authoritarian mothers
and fathers have low self-esteem, are insecure and have low emotional intelligence .
• They learn that power and demand are priorities and they behave submissively when
there is an external power, but when that external power is not present , self-control
problems and even aggressive behavior appear. Evidence suggests that this parenting
style promotes aggressive behavior in sons and daughters .

7. • 2. Democratic Parents
• These are fathers and mothers who promote dialogue with their children. They encourage
their independence by encouraging them to solve problems on their own, but by setting
clear rules .
• Democratic fathers and mothers take care to listen to their sons and daughters even if they
present different opinions and, in addition, they support them on an emotional level .
• The control of the behavior of the children is established from norms, dialogue, reasoning
and exposition of the expectations that they have of them.
• In addition, families that use this parenting style recognize and accept their mistakes and are
not afraid to rectify them .
• The sons and daughters of democratic mothers and fathers have high self-esteem,
confidence and tenacity . They are children who face new situations with confidence and
determination . In addition, they usually have good social skills . Having great emotional
intelligence , they are able to understand, express and manage their emotions and those of
others , being friendly and empathic .
• Research on this style concludes that it has positive effects on sons and daughters ,
increasing their self-esteem, improving educational achievement and level of independence,
and reducing behavioral problems

8. •3. Permissive parents
•Permissive parents are affectionate with their children, but do
not set limits or rules . In the event that there are rules, they
are very flexible with them and also with their consequences,
so they are not very demanding with boys and girls, and tend
to give in to conflicts with them. Their role is more like that of
a friend than that of a father or mother.
•Sons and daughters are usually cheerful and expressive, but
also very immature since they are not used to limits . They
can also appear as selfish boys and girls with problems
controlling impulsiveness .
•Studies say that these children may have higher levels of
aggression and delinquent behavior .

9. • 4. Neglectful parents
• They are parents who do not get involved in the upbringing and
education of children. They do not impose rules or limits and are
distant with their children, even ignoring or forgetting the basic
needs of the little ones .
• Paradoxically, although they do not impose rules, they can exercise
excessive unjustified and inconsistent control that disorients
children.
•
• The children of negligent mothers and fathers, not knowing the
importance of the rules, do not comply with them in any area and
tend to present behavior problems and have personal and social
conflicts .

10. • Are new parenting styles emerging?
• The observation of parenting styles has led to the appearance in recent
years of some new terms that are equal, in some cases, or complement, in
others, the four types that we have just described. Terms like tiger parents
, helicopter, snowplow, barnyard parents, or attachment parents are
beginning to appear frequently in articles on the subject.
• Tiger Parents
• Thus, tiger parents would resemble authoritarian parents since they
expect children to obey, strive for excellence and not talk back.
• Helicopter Parents
• The term helicopter parents is perhaps one of the best known to all. These
are overprotective parents , who do not allow their children to do
anything for themselves. They fear for the future of the children as in the
case of authoritarian parents, but they also act permissively.

11. • Snowplow Parents
• Another parenting style that combines authoritarian traits with permissive traits is the style of
snowplow parents , who dedicate their efforts to eliminating obstacles that may arise in their
children's lives, although there are practically no studies on the matter.
• Pond Parents
• The corral parents base their style on fully trusting the children so that, in the first place, they provide
them with the basics so that they can handle themselves in different situations and, later, they move
away to allow them freedom . In this sense, this parental style can fall into neglect .
• Parent attachment
• Finally, attachment parents would be those who maintain that children who develop strong bonds in
childhood will have happier relationships in the future . The advantage is that they allow the child to
experiment and give him security and confidence, but it can also be confused with the permissive
style .
• What is the best parenting style?
• We must bear in mind, at this point, that any classification helps us to order the information, but, in
matters of parenting, you have probably already realized that things are not usually black or white .
• Perhaps we need more research to be able to establish an updated and more complete classification
of parenting styles, but, while this is happening, we hope we have given you some clues about what
we currently know about the most popular parenting styles.
