Three parenting styles how they affect your teenager

Authoritarian parenting: Self-control
In this style of parenting, children are expected to follow the strict rules set by parents.

Just allow your child to do something, have a very early curfew, no parties, perhaps even without going out with friends unless it's are there too. I heard of a father who had other people spying on his daughter when she was out of immediate view of the father.

You may be driven by the desire to protect your child from making mistakes or getting hurt physically or emotionally. However, you cannot control what your child is doing when you are not standing at his side.

Instead of finding ways to spy on him, try to give your child some credit and add some confidence to their relationship. I bet that your child is afraid that "know" anyway, so I have serious doubts that it will do something drastic, unless he does it just to spite you.

All your teens see is that you are denying them what they like to do or have, and that will put in every effort to convince anyone that to change your mind, or are you going to do anyway behind your back.

The sad thing is that the real daughter would rather not do things behind her father, but his eyes did not leave a choice.

If you try to control your child by holding too tight, he will have to find a way to give vent to their frustration, and problems with anger or depression, even cutting will lead self-mutilation or drug use.

Once parents realize they can no longer control your teen every move and are tired of being constantly arguing with your teen, looking for tips on how to build a better, more respectful relationship with your teen.

Permissive parenting: Too uninvolved
Main concern of some parents is to make sure your child has enough space and privacy. Permissive parents are also more likely to try to be friends with your teen, instead of his father.

You can encourage disrespect as mentioned at the beginning, all teenagers away from their parents; it is part of the development of his own personality.

However, some parents may feel that this is caused by moving away something they did, so try to get your teenagers like them again. Parents believe their child will thank you, and so appreciate and respect them:

• My son would like to return when I buy this gadget
• If I let my son do what he wants, he wants me to him
• What gets in trouble, I'll fix it for him, and he'll be grateful

Your child will not be grateful; he give you for granted. Your child will also develop a bold and careless attitude; after all, you will be there to clean up your mess, so why should I care?

Contrary to what you are trying to achieve, your teen will respect you less and treat you more like his "slave" every day.

And the longer you allow this to continue, the worse it will get for you. At some point, this can lead to your child being verbally and even physically abusive towards you.

Permissive parents can also overlook the fact that your child has not yet learned to manage the affairs of their daily life.

Naturally, the teenager likes to have that level of, for example; he can brag to your friends, especially when the other has to ask permission.

Since "cut your child to lose" he feels obliged to take care of himself without asking for advice or assistance. Your teenager will be excited that he can do what he wants when he wants, but this feeling only lasts a short time.

Once reality hits and your child feels the weight of having to deal with everything on his own, he wishes he could ask for his help.

But that gave him total control over your life, so you should be convinced that he can handle it, right? And therefore, your child feels to ask for your help would be disappointing you.

Overwhelmed, your child will become other people (not always good) for advice, or they will get in trouble, just to get a reaction from you or to force him to participate in his life.

Authoritarian parenting: Having control unchecked
Authoritarian parents understand that parenting adolescents is not a popularity contest.

Enforcing the rules and limits, but is willing to listen to the input of your teenagers. If your child wants more freedom and more control over your life, you are open to give you the opportunity to show that he can handle the situation.

To know what their teenagers are able to now give them the opportunity to manage certain issues that affect their daily lives. For example:

• Let them decide what clothes to buy and wear
• when to do homework
• when to do homework
• respect their rules and limits
• any other situation that would like to try

You may discover that your teens are able to make good decisions and good decisions on their own, based on the principles already instilled in them.

On the other hand, you may discover that your child lacks the confidence or ability to make decisions.

Rather than scold or punish your teen, point out what went wrong and where and how to best handle this particular situation the next time.

Adhere to the discussion of what went wrong; teach your child how to gather information, analyze facts and situations, and how to look beyond the obvious.
