September 24: Parenting Styles
Have you ever noticed yourself saying something to your children that your parent said to you? Or have you ever wondered how to guide and support your children effectively, while still preparing them for independence? In this workshop we will explore and reflect on our parenting styles, how they have developed, the benefits and drawbacks of each kind of parenting style, and how to find a balance that best supports a strong family for you. Topics covered include:
•Understand your own personality style
•Understand authoritarian, permissive, neglectful, and authoritative parenting styles and their effects on children
•Information on the Parent & Child bond and some actions you can take to increase responsiveness as a parent
Extension Extras Parenting Hour is a free online series of parenting workshops that provides guidance for parents of young children as they navigate the challenges, joys, and concerns of parenting.
