The Permissive Parents
April 17th, 2008
What is permissive parenting? It is when parents tend to give teenagers what they want, but within limits, of course. Limits or boundaries are the keys to successful parenting these days. Here are some other kinds of permissive parents:
1. General Confused Permissiveness - The most common type of parenting. These parents feels that being a friend to their teenage kids is the best thing. The downside is they literally give what their kids ask for.
2. Compensatory Permissiveness - Parents who were growing up poor want to give their kids everything they didn’t have. These include material things and behavioral freedom, which they are formerly denied.
3. Conditional Permissiveness - Parents give their teen children what they want as long as the kids will satisfy certain conditions. The terms are not usually explicit. Freedom and material goods are often rewarded if the teenagers are in their best behavior.
4. Indifferent Permissive - These are the typically busy parents who have no time to be actively involved with their kids’ life. Their excuse are often about other “real” problems like poverty, illness, etc.
