[quote=Anonymous]I agree with the PP that this list is not a helpful conversation starter. There is an onvious "right" choice and no parent is going to admit that their parenting style is "Neglective" for example. So you are welcome to judge people but if you want to have an open and honest discussion, talk to parents about: 1) books/resources that resonant with them (positive discipline adherants I would ask follow-up questions to see whether they are actually permissive vs. Super Nanny fans might lean towards authoritarian vs. Parents who talk a lot about "free range" might lean towards neglective 2) Real life examples ("How would you handle XYZ?") 3) House rules (can be VERY) telling But every permissive parent has doled out at least a few consequences, and every authoritative parent has given a few hugs,nand every neglectful parent gives their kid SOME attention,mso parents convince themselves they are closer to the ideal than reality bears out.[/quote]
