After reading the assigned textbook chapters and “Baumrind’s Parenting Styles” located in Module 7: Lecture Materials & Resources, please address the following questions:
One of the tasks of socialization is to prepare a child for adulthood. Personality theorists refer to individuation as the process by which individuals come to take responsibility for self. Individuation involves both sense of self as separate and connected to others. How might each of these parenting styles support or undermine these developing patterns?
Describe families from the entertainment field, the news, or from your observation that best portray at least two of the four parenting styles. You must use different examples than those given by your classmates who post before you.
