Respond to parts 1 and 2 below in full sentences. part 1 - Distinguish between authoritarian, authoritative, and permissive parenting.
part 2 - According to Diana Baumrind’s research and studies, which form of parenting is the most effective?

AP Psychology class.

Authoritative parents are responsive with clear rules and high expectations that support the child and allow them to have their independence. This parenting style leads to higher academic performance and self-esteem, better social skill and a lower chance of mental illness and delinquency. 

Authoritarian parents are unresponsive with strict rules and high expectations and expect blind obedience. This parenting style leads to a higher chance of mental illness, delinquency, and drug or alcohol abuse but lower academic performance and self-esteem, with poor social skills. 

Permissive parents are responsive with few rules and very indulgent and lenient. This type of parenting style often leads to impulsive behavior, poor social skills, being egocentric, and having problematic relationships. 

According to Diana Baumrind the most affective form of parenting is authoritative.

Explanation:

Had this question in AP Psych on edge:)

1. Authoritarian parenting is well described as its name, a parenting technique that is firm and extremely strict. As a parent or caregiver with authoritarian parenting techniques, they focus on discipline, obedience, control, and authority over their child rather than nurturing them. They have high expectations on the child/children, expect them to not make any mistakes, perform with 120% rather than only 100%. In a way, the child has to stay in line. One simple accident or mistake, and it would not follow with the parents standards.

Authoritative parenting is somewhat similar to Authoritarian parenting, meaning that they do set boundaries, limits, and rules for the child to abide and follow along with. The difference is that authoritative parents listen and support their children's needs. Instead of being strict and expecting the child to learn everything by themselves, they lead their children through honest discussions, teach them values, and encourage independence. Authoritative parents do not necessarily "hold" their child's hand or "spoon feed" them the rest of their life, but when the child is having difficulty, the parents will step in to guide them and teach them what they need to do.

Permissive parenting is the complete opposite of what Authoritative and Authoritarian parenting is. Permissive parenting is the style of parenting that is being warm, nurturing, and caring towards the child/children, and oppose against setting boundaries or limits. With this type of parenting, they let the child have leisure time, let them behave however they want, and they do not see anything wrong in how the child acts. With permissive parenting, the parents do not let their child do any work or chores. Or if they do ask the child to do something, they will ask them to do a certain task, but only if they want to. This type of parenting lets children not life a single finger because their parents already do everything for them. And when the child is having difficulty, instead of letting them problem solve; the parents "hold their hand" or "spoon feed" them the rest of the way rather than letting them learn.

2. Out of all the three forms of parenting, Diana Baumrind found authoritative parenting as the most effective because it set boundaries and limits on children, taught them discipline and obedience, made them diligent, but still have fun and not feel so pressured.
