Which parenting style is best?
The most important thing as a parent is to make sure you are raising children who are happy, healthy, and well-adjusted.
To do this, it is crucial to instill values in them as early as possible. This includes teaching them how to treat others, respect authority, and accept responsibility for their actions.
In this way, they are able to grow up as responsible adults who know exactly what they want and can attain it.
This means your child will be able cope with any problems they have at school or with their friends better than if they were not taught these things as a young age.
Are strict parents better?
I believe you should strive to be a strict mother. Children need to learn how they behave. But if they aren't behaving well, they must be disciplined.
It is important to show them proper behavior. You don't want your children to get out of control. They might hurt someone.
You will find that being a strict parent is more difficult than being a permissive one. You will see rebellion in your children if you give them too much freedom.
If you give them too much freedom they won't be able to control their behavior.
It's hard work being a strict parent, but I think it's worth it.
Is gentle parenting good?
It depends on the definition of what you mean "good." If you're talking about how children are treated, then I would say yes. However, if you're asking whether it's good for them, I'd have to say no. They need to be disciplined and firm at times. They won't learn how to behave well if they don't.
Children need limits and rules. These rules and limits will help children know what is acceptable behavior. They won't be able respect others and follow the instructions.
If you want to know which parenting style I favor, it would be none. Each of these styles is equally effective. The key is to find the one that is most effective for you and/or your family.
What is a positive example?
Positive parenting is teaching children how to behave. It involves setting high expectations for their behavior and expecting them to meet them. It involves loving them unconditionally and supporting them through their struggles.
Positive parenting teaches children that they should make decisions based upon what is best for them, and not on what is easiest or most convenient. This helps children develop into independent adults who know what they want and don't just do whatever others tell them.
Positive parenting is also about having fun together, and encouraging your children's happiness.
When children see their parents care about them and treat them like people instead of objects, they begin to trust them. They are more likely to be happy and healthier, and less likely get into trouble.
