Discuss the possible effects of different parenting styles on children.?

if it is discipline from parents that are not together anymore, the child will get extremely confused and act out since they don't know what they're allowed to do anymore. I have two children who go with their dad who doesn't discipline them hardly at all. I discipline them and they started to not like me since they don't get their way all the time. They are very young though. They get confused when i punish them because after being with their father, they assume they can do anything and that its alright. In older children, I'd think they'd act out and get into trouble a lot because they see that their parents don't know to be a parent since they can't even agree on a simple thing like discipline...if that makes any sense.

I think the fact that parents seem to think that their children are property is disgusting. Minors may be the most protected group in American society, but they are also the group with the fewest rights.





The value of a person depends on their character, not their age. Deciding that someone is inferior simply because of their age is idiotic. People wonder why society is so fucked up. Well, you can start with this!





Parents say that THEY weren't bothered by how their parents treated them, so why should their kids feel any differently? Perhaps the reason they aren't upset that their parents hit them and treated them like property is because they do not genuinely value themselves! They have been so indoctrinated with ideas about the virtue of submission to authority that they can't even see straight.Discuss the possible effects of different parenting styles on children.?
I had my kids in the early 90's when the push was big on ';empowering children'; and involving them in making descisions. I read lots of parenting books, took classes and tried to follow the experts and do the right thing. Now I think it is a bunch of crap and wish I had raised my boys in a more traditional authoritative manner.





My kids, like so many others these days, think they are equal to adults and have a sense of entitlement. Truth is..power and respect are earned in this big bad world and alot of these kids are in for a shock. Im having another baby soon..and with this one..Im the boss, the authority.





A 3 yr old doesnt need to decide what kind of cereal to eat or colour of shirt to wear. And their self esteem isnt going to be damaged by a smack on the bottom when they need it
Moderate spanking = good kids, too much spanking = abused kids, no spanking = spoiled, out of control kids.
Me and my brother are the perfect example. i was smacked,grounded,put to bed before dinner,things taken away ect, my brother on the other hand could do nothing wrong got away with everything done whatever he wanted whenever he wanted now i am 27 married mother of 3 non criminal, my brother now 25 is a drug addict,no job,criminal with no prospect of a normal life he has a son and another on the way. But i think the difference in the way our mother dealt with us has put us both on different paths in life and i have thanked my mother because without it i would not be the way i am.
