Kohn’s parenting styles include self-direction versus
conformity. Conformity parenting is when parents have strict supervision and
self-direction helps to motivate children and help children develop important
components of life such as consideration and reasoning.
Baumrinds parenting style is made up of three different
styles, authoritative, permissive and authoritarian. Authoritative parenting
style is a parent that has high levels of control over their children, yet they
are also very warm and loving. They want their children to succeed and help
guide in doing so. Permissive parenting style are usually parents who are very
caring to their children but they also let their children get away with a lot
of things. They have very little control over their children. Authoritarian
parenting styles is where parents are very strict, and are not warm to their
children. They expect a lot from their kids and expect nothing but the best.
Lareau parenting styles is made up of two different
components: concerted cultivation and accomplishment of natural growth.
Concerted cultivation is where parents help exemplify their child’s interests
and abilities. Accomplishment is where the parents let their children naturally
develop their basic needs.
Baumrind’s parenting style differs from the other two
because it is directly how they treat the child. A parent may have one of
Baumrinds parenting styles mixed in with one of the other parenting styles as
well.
The parenting style I favor most would be Baumrinds
parenting style because it seems to fit most models of parents or possibly mix
some of the styles together. But this is something that is easily seen to
others from the outside and is easy to identify. I believe that most parents
can identify themselves with one of the Baumrind’s parenting styles.
