Parents make great sacrifices for the care of their children .day after day, parents protect their children from danger, attend their cries ,and reassure their children after a bad dream. Parents give up many necessities for their children every day. In the poem “those winter sundays ” by robert hayden , the father displays the sacrifices he makes for this son.

In the united states, there is some truth to the stereotype of “helicopter parents” who monitor and guide every step of their childrens lives. Scandinavian parents tent be the opposite. They are more interested in having their children develop imagination, independence and a sense of discovery, and they generally interfere much less with their childrens choice .
The authoritative parents are more likely to be viewed as reasonable , fair and just, their children are more likely to comply with their parents requests. Also, because these parents provide rules as well as explanation for these rules, children are much more likely to internalize these lessons.
Rather then simply following the rules because they fear punishment, the children of authoritative parents are able to see why the rules exist, understand that they are fair and acceptable, and strive to follow these rules to meet their own internalized sense of what is right wrong.
Parenting styles are associated with different child outcomes, and the authoritative style is generally linked to positive behaviors such as strong self -esteem and self -competence. However , other important factors including culture, childrens temperament, childrens perception of parental treatment, and social influences also play and important role in childrens behaviour .
