📝 Take the Parenting Style Quiz

Each parenting style has strengths and limits. Under stress, you may default to how you were raised, but you’re not stuck with one approach.
Parenting requires flexibility. When safety is at risk, a firm, authoritative approach is crucial. But in emotional moments—like supporting a teen in need—empathy and open communication build trust
Research shows that the authoritative style—warm yet firm—best supports children's emotional health, social skills, and academic success.

Under stress, it's easy to default to your parents' style, but if it lacks balance, it may not fully meet your child's needs.
Awareness helps you choose wisely. Aim for an authoritative approach whenever possible, as it best supports your child’s growth and well-being.
Your default style often mirrors how you were raised, but you’re not stuck with it.

Authoritarian Parenting

Authoritarian parents rely on strict rules, high standards, and punishment to control their child’s behavior. With rigid expectations and little flexibility, they maintain firm control. Children raised under authoritarian parenting may grow up fearing punishment and lack the opportunity to practice making their own decisions. As a result, some may become aggressively rebellious, struggle with social skills, and find it difficult to make sound decisions independently.
