--Parenting Styles 02--

I hope that you have finished the section #1. Here is the section #2.


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.
