Abstract
Parents often question whether or not they are raising their children in the best way possible and how to most effectively ensure their children turn out to have all of the tools to be successful in life. Research has illustrated the several different types of parenting such as authoritarian, authoritative, permissive, and neglectful. Authoritarian parenting puts more pressure on the child and presents the parents in a way that does not allow compromise, showing that their way is the only way possible. Consequently, authoritative parenting focuses on developing a relationship with the child and one that is high in communication between both parties. Permissive parenting gives children free range and the parents give the child little guidance. Lastly, neglectful relationships left the parent completely uninvolved from the child. These examples are only a few methods to the complex process that is parenting. Overall, the authoritative parenting style was found to be the most effective out of the presented methods after examining household socioeconomic status and a child’s success in their education.
