3. What is Parental
Involvement ?
For the first time in the history of the Elementary and
Secondary Education Act (ESEA) the law defines parental
involvement as, “the participation of parents in regular,
two-way, and meaningful communication involving
student academic learning and other school activities.
(NJPIRC 2010)

4. Parenting Styles
Authoritarian Parents ”have
high demands, but are not
responsive to their children.
They are Obedience-and status-
oriented, and expect their
orders to be obeyed without
explanation”

5. Parenting Styles
Authoritative Parents :They are
assertive, but not intrusive and
restrictive. Their disciplinary
methods are supportive, rather
than punitive. They want their
children to be assertive as well as
socially responsible, and self-
regulated as well as cooperative.

6. Parenting Styles
Permissive Parents :”are more
responsive than they are
demanding. They are nontraditional
and lenient, do not require mature
behavior, allow considerable self-
regulation, and avoid
confrontation”.

7. Parenting Styles
Uninvolved Parents :
Characterized by few demands,
low responsiveness, and little
communication. While these
parents parents fulfill the child’s
basic needs, they are generally
detached from their child’s life.
(Baumrind,1991)

Thesis

9. Aesop's Fables
The Goose with the Golden Eggs
• One day a countryman going to the nest of his
goose found there an egg all yellow and
glittering. When he picked it up it was very
heavy and he was going to throw it away,
because he thought a trick had been played on
him.
• But he decided to take it home and soon
discovered that it was an egg of pure gold.
• Every morning the same thing occurred, and he
grew rich by selling his eggs. As he grew rich
he grew greedy; and thinking to get all the gold
the goose could give, he killed it and opened it
only to find nothing.
