Comparing and Contrasting parenting styles

I will be describing, comparing, and contrasting parenting styles from Baumrind, Lareau, and Kohn. 
Baumrind's parenting style is composed of three sub parenting styles : authoritative, permissive, and authoritarian. The authoritative style is when parents are demanding and have high control over their children, however are still caring and receptive. The permissive style is when a parent is nurturing, caring, and responsive but is also quite lenient. The last part of baumrinds parenting style is authoritarian, in this style parents are strict, punitive, less communicative  and offer less warmth. Baumrind's style elicits important sides of parenting and parenting choices.
Kohns style of parenting is different in the way that it reflects the traits that parents desire or look for in a child, more specifically the lower class tends to search for traits that would be valued in the working sector of society such as conformity, stying out of trouble, and being organized. Whereas the higher class look for traits such as independence, creativity, and curiosity.
This ties into Lareau's parenting style that describes how social class and how its values effect the way one is raised. For example, tend to be more controlling authoritarian seeking hard working trait from their children. This is a perfect example of how Lareau's style is the middle man of the other two, it combines both in the way that it is both similar and different and that is why I favor this style, its much more flexible to different familial situations.
