Modes of Parenting: tells how the personality of a child can be directly related to the manner in which he/she is raised

An essential part in developing a child's character is through the manner in which he is raised. Through my observations and studies in my human, growth, and development course, I have learned of three significant modes of parenting: authoritarian, authoritative, and permissive. Each form of parenting, for the most part, produces different personality traits in their children. Whether a child is outgoing, introvert, or unmanageable may be directly linked to the relationship he has with …

…children in the long run. It even says in Proverbs 22:6, "Train up a child in the way he should go; and when he is old, he will not depart from it." Simple personality traits- social skills, self-confidence, or self-centeredness- are associated with someone's upbringing, but, of course, other factors can contribute to someone's overall personality traits. After being well-informed of these parental styles, I personally will be more conscientious when raising children of my own.
