What Type of Parent Are You?

Parenting is different in every family, as every parent exhibits different parenting styles. A parenting style is a parenting behavior and attitude that sets the emotional climate of parent-child interactions.

Some parents, are strict rule setters who expect complete and immediate compliance from their children. Others are more likely to allow their children some leeway in following the standards they have set for them. The degree of parental warmth, support, and acceptance versus the degree of parenting control and demandingness are two major factors when observing these different parenting styles.
