Paper Instructions:

Write a reflection paper describing the parenting style used with you when you were growing up. Speak of how you viewed the experience as a child as compared to now as an adult.

Also, describe which parenting style describes your approach to your children or (if you have them) or the style you think you would use if you were to have children.  

For example--and from the text--choose from the following global parenting styles:  


Authoritarian parents: Expect unquestioned obedience; Child needs to be controlled

Permissive parents: Warm and nurturing; Allow children to regulate own lives with few guidelines

Authoritative parents: Sensitive to child's maturity; Firm, fair, reasonable and affectionate

Uninvolved parents: Do not respond appropriately to children; Indifferent



While this assignment requires some self-reflection, you should always incorporate at least 2 outside sources to support your own ideas.
