According to clinical assistant professor, Anita Gurian, there are four types of parenting styles: authoritarian, authoritative, permissive, and uninvolved. Parenting styles include the behaviors, actions, and spoken words of our primary caregivers. The different parenting styles impact and influence child development in a number of positive and negative ways.
Parenting styles also impact how we view ourselves and the world around us, which in turn impacts our temperament (Gurian, n.d.). The relationship between child and parent is often impacted by the match or mismatch between parenting style and the temperament of the child (often referred to as "Goodness of Fit") (Thomas & Chess, 1977).
Initial Post - Read the article Parenting styles/children's temperaments: The matchPreview the documentView in a new window by Anita Gurian. Then, answer the following questions by writing at least one paragraph for each response.
Explain the specific impact parenting styles have on two issues related to child development. Examples include: obesity, resiliency, social-deviance, self-esteem, school performance, cognitive flexibility, and emotional intelligence. Provide examples from at least one outside scholarly resource in addition to your textbook.
Discuss the match or mismatch between parenting styles and their child's temperament.
How can we as professionals help close this gap? What can you do in your professional role to mediate the conflict?
Guided Response - Respond to at least two peers who provided different examples regarding the impact parenting styles have on child development.
Respectfully state whether you agree or disagree with your peer about the relationship between parenting style and the presenting issue in the child (i.e. obesity). Be sure to support your stance.
Though two replies is the basic expectation, for deeper engagement and learning, you are encouraged to provide responses to any comments or questions others have given to you (including the instructor) before the last day of the learning week; this will further the conversation while also giving you opportunities to demonstrate your content expertise, critical thinking, and real world experiences with this topic.
DISCUSSION 2
Your initial discussion thread is due on Day 3 (Thursday) and you have until Day 7 (Monday) to respond to your classmates. Your grade will reflect both the quality of your initial post and the depth of your responses.
