How does neglectful parenting affect children's behavior?
What will be an ideal response?
Children whose parents are neglectful develop the sense that other aspects of the parents' lives are more important than they are. These children tend to be socially incompetent; they also display low self-control and an inability to handle independence well. They frequently have low self-esteem, are immature, and may be alienated from the family. In adolescence, they may show patterns of truancy and delinquency, and in general this style is associated with a higher level of externalizing problems.
