What parenting style is the most popular in America today?
The traditional family model is not as popular today as it was 50 years ago because families are changing. Parents are less involved in raising their children. They prefer to be with their children and spend more time alone. This is known as helicopter parenting. This is when parents hover over their children 24/7. They make sure they are always watching over their children. They ensure that their children are healthy and fit. This kind parenting creates stress for both the parents and the children. Children feel that they are missing out on childhood experiences and parents feel guilty if they don't have them around all the time.
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 teach dependence. They teach their children that adult support is necessary for success. If they fail, then they blame themselves.
Children feel worthless and insignificant as a result. Because they did not live up to their own expectations, they feel like failures. Because they didn't learn how to cope with failure, they lack self-confidence.
This type of parenting is also less popular because there are fewer families with two parents. When both parents work outside the home, it makes it harder for them to be available to their kids. Many parents end up raising their children by themselves.
Today, parents want happy and healthy children. Parents don't want their children to be stressed about getting enough sleep, eating right, and exercising. They want to focus on their own lives. They have hired tutors, nannies or other caregivers so they can focus on their own lives.
They don't want to micromanage every aspect of their child's life. They don’t want their children to think that they can make no mistakes. They want their kids to learn from mistakes and attempt again.
