More in this section:Effective Parenting Styles
Studies have shown that a highly effective parenting style is when a parents provide high levels of warmth and affection and an equal amount of appropriate control and limit setting. When combined, these influences go a long way in helping children develop successfully. Your toddler, for example, needs lots of cuddling and contact, but he also needs firm limits that are consistent and predictable. Also, don’t be fooled by your prickly teenager. She still needs the occasional hug, and, just as importantly, she needs you to establish rules, which she, in turn, needs to test. Learn to strike the balance between respecting your teen’s privacy, but letting them know you’re still there to protect and hug them.
