Section #2
The Disapproving Parent
-Displays many of the Dismissing Parent's behaviours, but in a more negative way.
-Judges and criticizes the child's emotional expression.
-Is overaware of the need to set limits on their children.
-Emphasizes conformity to good standards of behaviour.
-Reprimands, disciplines, or punishes the child for emotional expression, whether the child is misbehaving or not.
-Believes expressions of negative emotions reflect bad character traits, and should be time-limited, and controlled.
-Believes the child uses negative emotions to manipulate; this belief results in power struggles.
-Believes emotions make people weak; children must be emotionally tough for survival.
-Is concerned with the child's obedience to authority.
Effects on children
-Same as the Dismissing style.
