This question was inspired by a post from @JoyGirl - What were your parents like towards you growing up 🤔? Thank you @JoyGirl for a great question, I'm piggybacking off of it! For those of you who had single parents/guardians, and who are single parents/guardians... This still applies to you, you can answer! <3 What parenting style did your parents/guardians use? And what style would/do you use as a parent? Child Psychologists say the most effective parenting style is AUTHORITATIVE. My answer: Growing up, my parents were Authoritative as a whole. My mom was more authoritative , my dad was more authoritarian … Depending on what I did, my parents gauged how they would parent me. For example, if I got in trouble for smoking pot at school, they would be more authoritarian . If I were doing good, they would be more permissive . -- If I were a parent, I think I would be authoritative as well. I would follow how my parents parented me… Overall, authoritative is my preferred parenting style because it is shown to have the best outcome, based on my research, experience, and studies . *NOTE* Do some research on recommended parenting style!
