8. Impact of Parenting Styles: Group Activity Make dot points on your given parenting style about how children of these parents may be affected.

9. Impact of Parenting Styles: Authoritarian parenting styles generally lead to children who are obedient and proficient, but they rank lower in happiness, social competence and self-esteem. Their children might not show initiative, independence, or curiosity. The capacity of these children to reach suitable decisions in social settings might also be impaired-and instead they might merely follow social norms. These problems might represent limited opportunities to choose which behaviors they would like to pursue early in life. Rebellion might also be common in these children.

10. Impact of Parenting Styles: Authoritative parenting styles tend to result in children who are happy, capable and successful. The balance of direction, independence, and sensitivity is assumed to enhance the progress and independence of their children. The children show initiative and confidence.

11. Impact of Parenting Styles: Permissive parenting often results in children who rank low in happiness and self-regulation. These children are more likely to experience problems with authority and tend to perform poorly in school. These children, purportedly, are often impulsive because they do not develop the capacity to regulate their behavior effectively, especially in social relationships. These children are also more likely than peers to be victimized at school. Later, they might exhibit misconduct. Unlike children whose parents are authoritarian, children whose parents are permissive later develop solid relationships with these parents.

12. Impact of Parenting Styles: Uninvolved parenting styles rank lowest across all life domains. These children tend to lack self- control, have low self-esteem and are less competent than their peers. Their attachment style with their parents is, supposedly, characterized by confusion, because they cannot develop a consistent means to cope with neglect. Other social relationships might also be disrupted later in life. They also often engage in risky behavior.

14. Positive Outcomes: Children with the highest self-esteem and most self reliance tend to have warm, concerned, authoritative parents. Children feel good when they attribute their behaviour to their own choices. Caution: The evidence relating to consequences of parenting styles is correlational. We cannot prove cause and effect.

15. Considerations: Consider: The agreeableness of the child The situation of the parents (going through divorce?) Poverty Education Genetics Evidence has shown authoritative parents to be more financially secure and well educated.
