WHAT KIND OF PARENT ARE YOU ? Authority Style & Parenting Personality

What kind of parent are you ?




What kind of environment are you creating for your child through your words, your action , your approach to discipline , and your attentiveness ?

This time we want to share about the authority style and parenting personality we get from the book titled " YOU , Raising Your Child - The Owners's Manual from First Breath to First Grade" by Michael F. Roizen, M.D & Mehmet C. OZ M.D.

The are two basic ways to the think about parenting style -one that reflects how you deal with authority and one that reflects your overall parenting personality.

So, take a look following character to see what best describes you.

AUTHORITY STYLE


Zero Authority : The Pudding Pop or Marshmallow Mommy

Characteristic : Soft easy, sweet to the point being unhealthy- ie , a push over

This parenting variety comes in most notable trait is the ability to say " Yes, sweetie" to every situation ."yes you can go to bed whenever you like ". " Yes you may have candy everyday "..etc. Kids will learn to manipulate parental units in all situation . Potential for destructive to relationship runs high.





Hyper Authority : The Iron Maiden or Master

Characteristic : Rigid, inflexible, super scary -ie  a tyrant

Parents will roar with a series " No, not a chance !" even to the most innocent of request . Species rules the only way it knows how, having descended from equally controlling parents of its own. While the strong -arm can work to achieve short -terms goals, long term damage is likely , as tension escalates and offspring rebellion rates soar.


Sensible Authority : The Flex - a -Family

Characteristic : establish ground rules with clear priorities ( health & safety) . Exercised in warm and loving environment and balanced with flexibility to play and explore.

Parents are work together and understand that raising require a firm set of rules . Children also given enough space to learn and grow on their own. Parents are NOT AFRAID to say NO , but when they DO , its not about exerting control but about to teaching why an actions is unsafe or unacceptable.

 Success rates of raising  a healthy , happy child are highest among this species.

Once you have identified which characteristic of parent, you will relate it with  PARENTING PERSONALITY that Inshaa Allah we will share it in our post next week ;)
