Understanding Parenting Styles: Authoritarian, Democratic, Permissive

Parenting styles are often a combination of a parent’s own personality with the parenting role models she or he grew up with. The authoritarian style imposes will through rigid rules and allows little flexibility or freedom. A permissive style has few rules and abdicates power. And the democratic style is a blend of the two, sharing power and encouraging children to make good decisions and think for themselves. Using three vignettes, this program shows teens interacting with their parents in stressful situations that demonstrate the traits of each parenting style. A Meridian Production. (25 minutes)
