However, when children attend school they do not just gain an academic education. I am sure most parents who do home-school recognize that education is far more than just academics, and aim to give their children a well-balanced education in life matters as well. On the other hand, I do not really think it would be possible to achieve this balance nearly as effectively in the twenty-first century by confining the majority of a child's life lessons to the home setting. Modern life is much more complex than in the past. Overall, I believe that home-schooling is not in the best interests of the child due to the fact that not every parent is qualified to be an educational teacher, that it creates time and financial restraints on the family, and that home-schooling leaves the child socially unprepared for teen and adult life.

These parents are sometimes called the indulgent parents. Parents that use this parenting style have very few demands of their children. Structure is low and warmth is high. These parents believe that they should respond to their children as individuals. They often act more as a friend to the child than a parent.
Field (1988) agreed with their findings and found that children who had been in full time day care were more aggressive towards their peers. However other studies show that day care doesn’t necessarily cause children to be more aggressive, but it can be the other way round as some home-reared children are seen to be more
The research has shown that fathers are influential in their daughters’ lives. The attachment theory is a useful framework for father-daughter relationships and its dynamics. It helps explain the importance of communication in a relationship. There are three types of attachments styles for adults: secure, avoidant, anxious/ambivalent. The styles are also related emotional distress.
Give at least one SPECIFIC example from your life (actual events) for each component of your mother's style in action: Use the following as HEADINGS for your examples. (2 for Acceptance/Involvement + 2 for Autonomy Granting) * Acceptance/Involvement (Acceptance = love & affection): 1 example for each: = one for “Acceptance” the other for “Involvement” * Control (including follow-through with consequences): 1 example * Autonomy-granting (Gradually giving you more & more freedom over the years + making your own decisions/choices based on your maturity): 1 example for each II.

Brian O. Poole ORG 6300: Human Development Dr. Spero February 28, 2010 Erickson named 8 stages of human development. These stages are infancy (birth to 18 months), early childhood (18 months to 3 years old), play age (3 to 5 years old), school age (6 to 12 years old), adolescence (12 to 18 years old), young adult (18 to 35 years old), middle age (35 to 55 or 65 years old), and late adulthood (65 to death), (Harper, 2009). With the first 3 stages, infancy, early childhood, and play age, the parent is the most significant figure. Just because Erickson does not state that the parent is the most significant figure in the other stages does not take away the fact that “parents” are not a significant figure. Although peers may become a more important reference group in shaping adolescent behaviors numerous studies show that the parent-child relationship remains important for the psychosocial adjustment of young adolescents.
Two white English-speaking mothers were interviewed, and two coloured Afrikaans-speaking mothers. The results were compared with regards to parenting styles, differing levels of prosocial behavior, and age, and cultural differences. In some respects, the findings supported previous research, revealing that the authoritative style of parenting promotes prosocial behaviour in children. It was found in this study that this was particularly true for empathy. There were no conclusive results for cultural differences or age differences as might be expected according to research findings.
Parenting Styles Brittany Patten Liberty University Abstract There are many different parenting styles utilized by caregivers in today’s world. Parenting styles may depend on location in the world, tradition, personal preference, or a myriad of other reasons. Parents and researchers try to figure out what parenting style is best for children to teach them to become strong, independent adults. Among the most popular parenting styles are authoritative, authoritarian, permissive, and other new-age parenting styles. Today, there has been a rise among instinctual parenting and attachment parenting.
Parenting styles are a combination of parental circumstances, habits, and emotional patterns that define the relationships between parent and child. This essay investigates the four main parenting styles from which questions emerge about the effectiveness of each. As we explore the possibilities of each style, please keep in mind, parenting style is meant to define normal variations and circumstances in parenting. Parenting is a complex activity that includes many specific behaviors that work individually and together to influence the outcome of child rearing. Parenting styles are very diverse and usually reflect that of one’s own life experiences.
