First Blog--AP 2009: PARENTING STYLES

After reading about and discussing Parenting Styles in class, please think about what styles you see at home. Think about other parenting styles that you have seen in your extended family, with your friends' parents, and in the media. You then will need to answer the following questions in a blog entry. Your entry needs to be time-marked (occurs automatically when you post your blog) by midnight on February 1st.

1) Pick a set of parents on a television show or in a movie. Choose which parenting style they employ, and give specific examples of why you have chosen that.

2) Explain what type of parenting style you think or hope to use when you have your own children.
