AUTHORATIVE PARENTING: NOT THE AUTHORITARIAN PARENTING STYLE IT SOUNDS LIKE

 

Expectations •••
Responsiveness ••••
Nurturing •••••
Freedom •••

Authoritative Parenting, a very different style from Authoritarian Parenting, is a delicate balance of discipline and nurturing with high expectations that earn trust and freedom. A good recipe for independent, well-balanced children with a strong self-image and little trouble adjusting to new or demanding situations.

This parenting style offers children structure and discipline within a forgiving, nurturing and supportive environment, allowing them to thrive at their own pace. Highly responsive, while not overprotective, parents allow children to discover and grow their natural abilities instead of trying to have them fit a mold.

GOOD PUPPY behavioral tools allow for the establishment and maintenance of structure and discipline. The system quickly becomes second nature, giving children a sense of autonomy. The emotions tools help in communication and bonding from a very young age, building a closer relationship between parent and child.
