Authoritarian
Parenting
In this style of parenting, children are expected to follow the strict rules established by the parents. Failure to follow such rules usually results in punishment. Authoritarian parents fail to explain the reasoning behind these rules.

Authoritative
Parenting
Like authoritarian parents, those with an authoritative parenting style establish rules and guidelines that their children are expected to follow. However, this parenting style is much more democratic. Authoritative parents are responsive to their children and willing to listen to questions. When children fail to meet the expectations, these parents are more nurturing and forgiving rather than punishing.

Permissive
Parenting
Permissive parents, sometimes referred to as indulgent parents, have very few demands to make of their children. These parents rarely discipline their children because they have relatively low expectations of maturity and self-control.

Uninvolved
Parenting
An uninvolved parenting style is characterized by few demands, low responsiveness and little communication. While these parents fulfill the child's basic needs, they are generally detached from their child's life.

We know that the Authoritative parenting style is more effective because it allows the children to learn what is right and what is wrong. This creates an opportunity for the children to learn and to grow in a way that helps them to know that their parents love them.
The LDS church created short commercials that show perfect examples of how the way we parent can affect our children. They show that it is okay to play with children and laugh and have fun with them. This time together really strengthens the family bond and helps to build trust within the family.
I really like that commercial!
