Which parenting style in America is the most preferred?
The traditional family isn't as popular today than it was 50 year ago, because of changes in families. Parents have become less involved in raising children. They prefer to spend their time alone, rather than spending time with their children. This is helicopter parenting. It's when parents hover over their kids 24/7. They are there to supervise them at all costs. They ensure they eat right, exercise, sleep at night, etc. This type of parenting creates a lot of stress for both kids and parents. Parents feel guilty for not being there all the time, and kids feel they are missing out on their childhood experiences.
This parenting style doesn't teach children how to take good care of themselves. They learn to depend on others for everything. Instead of teaching independence, parents are teaching dependence. They teach their children that adult support is necessary for success. They can blame themselves if they fail.
This makes children feel inadequate and worthless. Because they failed to live up to their expectations, they believe they are failing. They lack self-confidence because they were not taught how to handle failure.
This parenting style is not as popular due to the fact that there are less two-parent households. When both parents work outside the home, it makes it harder for them to be available to their kids. Many parents have to raise their kids by themselves.
Today, parents want happy and healthy children. They don’t want to worry about whether their kids get enough sleep, eat well, and exercise. They want to put their efforts into their own lives. That's why they hire nannies, tutors, and other caregivers to watch after their kids.
They don't wish to have control over every aspect in their child's lives. They don't want children to believe they are perfect and never make mistakes. They want them to learn from their mistakes and try again.
Why do parents choose authoritarian parenting?
For children to develop into healthy adults, they need to have a sense of autonomy and self-determination. Children who are not allowed make their own decisions often feel helpless, and inability to deal with everyday life. As a result, children may feel anxious and depressed.
Parenting styles that are authoritarian tend to create a climate where children feel controlled and powerless. This leads to feelings of loneliness and inadequacy. This hinders their ability to deal with challenges and problems.
The most effective way to raise happy, confident, and resilient children is by allowing them to experience success and failure without fear. Children learn to be responsible for their actions and take ownership through authoritative parenting.
Children should be allowed to make their own decisions and encouraged to voice their opinions. By giving children choices, you can help them build confidence and resilience.
