What will be an ideal response?


Authoritarian parents place strict rules on children and tend to believe in the "spare the rod, spoil the child" approach to parenting. To these parents, obedience is a virtue in its own right. Authoritative parents transmit their expectations clearly but also take the child's viewpoint into account. Authoritarian parents expect their children to obey them without question. Children of authoritarian parents tend to be hostile and have lower self-esteem than children of authoritative parents. Children of authoritative parents are more self-reliant, have higher self-esteem, and are more independent than children of authoritarian parents.
