"If you didn't come from a good family, make sure a good family comes out from you." ♥

[@piccolomair]

that's kind of how it works, and also the opposite - like kids who had everything provided for them tend to be terrible parents (since parenting can be a challenge and they aren't used to the effort) Shitty parents often yield better parents because they learn everything NOT to do. I think the saying is that the most important thing a parent can do is just try. You can't know all the answers, you can't be prepared for every situation, you're going to be flawed in some ways - but if you try your best to do what's right - in the end that will shine through. my dad an I didn't have the best relationship - nothing sinister or evil, just couldn't see eye to eye growing up. His definition of my greatness differed from my own. We still don't really see eye to eye but 35 years later i can look back at what he did, where he failed and where he succeeded...i turned out to be a decent human being i feel - so whatever he did, it wasn't all for naught. Kids are our seeds - we wont know how tall the plant will grow and what fruit it will yield, maybe not in our lifetime. We could do everything right and that plant may still whither due to the conditions of the environment - and vice versa. All we can ever really do is just try.

[@jaimeguerrero2697]

Easier said then done. If you parents neglected and abused you growing up. That way of thinking is embedded in your coding. So in turn you are more likely to treat your own child in such a manner.

[@Ibrahim164]

If you didn’t come from a good family, then don’t get married. If living alone is too difficult for you and you do end up getting married, then either use 100% effective methods of birth control, 100% of the time, or get a vasectomy. That way, you won’t end up having any children of your own, and you will be a lot less likely to pass your own inherited family dysfunction on to the next generation. I know that this sounds like a really harsh approach, but given the lack of adequate psychotherapy for adult children of dysfunctional families that would enable them to finally recover, it’s the only approach that is 100% guaranteed to finally break the multi-generational cycle of abuse. It’s either that, or you’ll need to answer to God regarding how badly you f***ed up your own children’s lives, even though you never intended to do that to them.

Narcissist people have a habit of constantly changing the way they treat people randomly, and it forces their victims into a constate state of panic where they’re always trying to guess so they can stay ahead and avoid punishment. I’ve seen it, it’s incredibly damaging to children. If you’re insecure in your parenting you don’t swing wildly from “do whatever you want kiddo, it’s cool” to “I’m going to beat you for sneezing at the dinner table,” that’s psychological abuse

Its hard when 2 parents have different parenting styles for the same child and dont agree. Should talk about how u were raised before having children together.

relateable.

[@Sinonia]

U know, people often agree theoretically when they want something from each other. They even don't know yet that they weren't honest because they didn't know the impact of a REAL child in their lives. The problem is that no matter how hard you wish you would be an authoritative parent, the styles u learned from your parents will remain your first habits and from that point on u will learn the hardest way to deal with self-trust and discipline and love and obedience and every day routines and so on and so on. I was talking quite wise about parenting when I wasn't a parent yet. Now, I keep my mouth shot and my eyes wide open.

[@MarcoBonechi]

I disagree. The difference in style is what allows the child to see through the content and the presentation.

[@DoctorReyesArt]

Part of it I think is essential, since masculine energy and feminine energy are so different, they both have their advantages and disadvantages. You average male is more practical and will exert more discipline on to their kids. While your average female is more emotional but understanding and far better and nurturing her kids. Their differences is what will help balance their relationship with their kids. In essence they will keep each other in check.

[@trackee2024]

I think it's helpful in my relationship with my spouse and 4 kids (6 years-old and younger). I have a tendency to withdraw (I had neglectful and authoritarian / abusive parents), so I work really hard to be present for my kids, but I get overwhelmed. My husband just had neglectful parents who were mostly good people and is more apt to give and want more love because of it. When I feel like I don't have anymore to give to the kids, he keeps going. He's the heart of our house and makes me a better mom every day.

No matter what kind of parent you had. It left you broken in some way. Something was missing. When you have siblings your privacy and autonomy might have taken some hits. When you had none it are your social skills. When you have a parent that tells you always what to do you never learned how to think for yourself. When your parent never told you what to do you might need to find out what others think and learn how to listen to their needs too, so you can get along better. No matter where you lived. There are things in the world you haven't experienced at your place. Like you might have never experienced being free and doing arts or handcraft when you lived in a city or you never experienced how to have an academic lifestyle when you lived in the country side. That's why you should take some time after you got out of your childhood to find yourself and to find the parts of you you never knew you lacked. Then you can take over the sail for the rest of your life.

I would call myself an authoritative parent and I have raised 2 adult daughters, mostly without their mother. One of my daughters gave me a very interesting book to read by Philippa Perry: "The book you wish your parents had read". It gave me some additional insights in good parenting. As I have understood it, raising children is not about the style of parenting, it's about the outcome! Individual children, need individual approaches, as long as you get the desired outcome. And the outcome is described by Philippa Perry as the following, what children should be able to in the long run: 1. Communicate 2. Regulate emotions 3. Form healthy relationships 4. Think critically 5. Take responsibility I really love this approach and if there are young parents out there, go and read this book. You won't regret it.

Very true. For instance, me and my sibling grew up with an insincere, neglectful and occasionally (toxicly?) permissive dad but a hopeful, authoritative mom who ended up driven stressed and authoritarian at times to maintain order while we kept wishing for our dad's genuine attention (that is until we gave up on that as teens, but the effects still remained, and I think that parental split is what drove me and my sibling's ways of seeing and reacting to life farther apart than our natural differences alone). Of course, there are also examples of parents with different parenting styles managing to work well - given they both care enough!

[@renatamelo1139]

Yesss. My mom was over-involved and athoritative (sometimes authoritarian) and my father was neglectful and permissive. I wonder if my mom was too strict sometimes just trying to "balance" this as my father was so "i dont care".

[@w140]

As a parent I can’t side myself on either ends. My parenting style is always explain everything, my motto I say to him every time “actions lead to consequences”. If he cries because he’s upset - I’m all supportive and calming him down. If he cries because he don’t want to do his homework - I’m strict and explain how doing homework is the gym for your brain and if you’re against it - you’re being against of yourself becoming better, while playing games is fun, you’re contributing into your failing and hardship further along the road. My main key is to explain in every little detail, how his homework that is being done today is contributing into his future and vice versa. When he becomes lazy I let him and just say “action leads to consequences”. I never refuse him anything without proper explanation why in most accessible and simple terms. My main goal is to ignite his self education and pursuit of becoming better in anything valuable. I support every his initiatives on curiosity. Never lie to him, if I give my word always make sure it’s done. One thing I can say for sure it’s a great and hard work everyday. I had to explain same thing a 100 times and being consistent with that is most difficult part. I never speak from authority, but only from logical explanations. Outcomes at his current 7yo: - still hates homework, but not happy when he does it sloppy, so he tries to make it better - learned to do his homework by himself with appropriate quality - still sometimes try to cut some corners. And I happy for that, cutting corners involves smartness of whether what could be done quickly and what should be done with careful consideration - switched from playing Roblox to creating levels for it and asked to get him special classes for programming, which he attends now - learned English at freely speaking/writing level.

I answer, because I did the „explain everything appropriately so the child can understand the reasoning“ as well. I like the outcome very much, my son is 25 now. However, one has to be prepared for endless, and I mean ENDLESS discussions especially when the child has another opinion of what they like to do at any given moment - once they get the concept. And we are equals in that right to explain our reasoning, that‘s not one-way! So from early on I also got explained in detail why and how things should be dealt with differently and a lot of stuff took a lot, A LOT of time and patience. With some rules that didn’t apply, like „Don’t run into the street“, strictest authoritarian whenever it was about life and death. While I like the result, as I said before, I love it and him in fact, the „explain the reasoning in detail“ gives you a child and teenager that will explain their reasoning in detail. ;) All the time, because I did it all the time, right? :D Is exhausting at times, I tell you…

It really depends on the child. Some kids/teens need more attention and guidance, while others are more independent or self-motivated. Even throughout their lives, these needs change over time. As a parent, we should be mindful of these needs and adjust accordingly, but also allowing them to fail on occasion to prepare them for the challenges of life.

[@lucywoomy]

Btw I want to add something. Allowing failure is not the same thing as causing failure. Idk if I use the correct words but I know people whose parents are mean to them and stuff like that “to prepare for life because life isn’t easy so they have to be ready”. Your role as a parent isn’t to punch your kid in their feelings just because it might happen later in life. It’s to allow them to explore and reassure them when they fail, and let them start over if they want to. Bringing a child down to “prepare them” won’t do much good. You’re just making the child miserable and they will trust you less.

Styles of Parenting 1 Authoritarian Parents Child grows up not knowing what they want and are generally sad and unhappy 2 Permissive Parents Child is inconsiderate and has no limits 3 Authoritative Parents Child is well adjusted, uses Critical Thinking, Common Sense and Facts 4 Neglecting Parents Child has a negative image of herself, is insecure 5 Over Involved Parents Child lack perseverance and has problem solving issues

[@57thorns]

And with the way everything is worded, it is clear that Authoritive Parenting is the only way. Does this mean you treat every child the same way? Absolutely not, it means the parents listen and watch and allow each kid to develop according to their own potential. It means that they are prepared to handle dangerous or bad tendencies firmly (without resorting to physical violence or mental abuse). The hard part is that one kid need strict rules while another can be given (seemingly) complete freedom. This parenting "style" is more about growing mutual trust and respect than anything else.

However, it's crucial to consider the child's mood and health before responding to external influences. Currently, I lean more towards authoritative parenting. Initially, I was between authoritarian and neglectful parenting due to excessive work and poor sleep management. Eventually, I recognized the negative effects and made an effort to correct myself and focus more on my family. Every child needs a tailored parenting style-some are easygoing and easy to interact with, while others are choleric or highly active, requiring more patience, wisdom, and firmness. Those who easily judge parents are usually children and adults without children. Don't victimize yourself; instead, try to find a solution for your current situation and improve. This is the only way to succeed.

That's kinda how my husbands parents were. They told me that it's stupid to teach my son how to do basic things like handling money/bills, filing taxes, fixing things around the house, making appointments, etc as a child but they get mad when my husband (their child, 22 years old) can't do those things? Like duh, you thought it was stupid to teach him those things and now I have to do it myself 🤦🏻‍♀️

[@fiestyfox2207]

They believe it's stupid because they were helicopter parents (literally constantly with him, even when he had cross country practice they waited at the school for 2 hours) and just did everything for him. He was definitely insecure about making his own decisions and being away from his mom/me for the first 2 years after he moved out of their house. I've since broken him out of his shell and he's been way more independent and has made some wonderful choices.

Also it is not your job to raise him and it is very very very easy to fall into the role of selfless enabler.

Anyone watching this who is not a parent doesn't actually understand how hard parenting is! I had a rough childhood and now overcompensate and am a snow plow/helicopter mom to try to give my child everything I didn't have. I know it isn't right, but it's subconscious. Most people tend to parent based on their own childhood experiences. To parent takes real effort and real insight. It takes concious effort and the ability to admit you're wrong. It's sometimes tears on the parents part as you realize you handled that wrong. Just the other day, I had to conciously catch and stop myself when my daughter didn't win a prize at softball... I felt horrible and almost took her to the store to buy her something. I stopped myself, but it wasn't easy. I felt horrible inside (even though I shouldn't have). She has to learn she can't always win. She does have to face disappointment (much to my dismay). Parenting does not come with an instruction manual! I took all the classes and even have a degree in psychology, but we ALL deal with subconscious behaviors that are difficult to overcome. I just hope she knows I wake up every day and honestly do my best. ❤

My parents are definitely the first mixed with the second type. They were laidback in chores but they just wanted me to be responsible. And well it seems fine to want your kid to be a capable human being, but they literally pampered me as a child. And then when suddenly I hit my pre-teen years, they want me to be super responsible without even allowing me to get experience or even teach me. They also randomly blow up and act angry and agitated towards me which makes me feel like I'm walking on eggshells around them, which causes me to fear them. I hate crying in front of them or even telling them about my problems with suicidal ideation since they'll just tell me to pray to god or to just stop being a coward. I can't ever talk back or explain my perspective to them because they do not listen. Sorry it turned to a vent. I'm just a 13 year old who wants a therapist, but can't get one.

[@angelas5099]

Hey there! Religious parents can often ignore mental health issues and imagine their children to be clay they want to shape, rather than actual human beings. Try writing down in a diary how you feel, both good days and bad. I used to be suicidal too but never could tell my parents because they'd just say "suicide is for cowards and is a sin according to the bible". Talk to a close friend or relative about what is bothering you if you trust them enough. Or vent here, I will get a notification when you reply to me. Never ever believe that you are unwanted by everyone. I used to think I was worthless and no one loves me, they just loved my performance in school. As I grew up I realized that was not true. Parents sometimes just have their own troubles they hide from kids and teens, even from their grown-up children! And even if nobody loves you a lot right now, someday you would be loved so much by many, be it a lover, spouse, your child and maybe a future best friend! Someday you might be a famous writer, actor, scientist, anything you want! So stay strong and keep moving forward, you can do it! :)

So sorry to hear this is your circumstances right now; I was also in a dark place between 13-17 years old. Depressed, suicidal, lonely.

Things are better now, and surprisingly, my “family” life (parents & siblings) is not any better, maybe it’s worse. But my own perspective, and my own life, is brighter now. I don’t mean to throw cliches at you, I’ve been where you are, but when you are ready; do pray to Jesus and ask him to help free your mind from all the darkness. He can. He did for me. He will for You too. 🙏

[@PsychicIsaacs]

Sweetie, please don't kill yourself. And please don't let your overly religious parents ruin your view of God. I was constantly bullied, all the way through school and couldn't talk to my parents about it. I loved them and they loved me, and they were really good parents, but there was a roadblock with regards to this one issue-schoolyard bullying. These days, I'm 46. I met a loving husband and had 2 sons and five wonderful years of marriage, before my husband died suddenly, of a heart attack. I had to raise my sons alone, but now they are 18 and 20 and are fine young men. God has always been with me, meaning Jesus Christ, I have walked His path for me, but have tried to not be overly religious. I have seen the damage that religion has done to other people's children, and it breaks my heart. As for me, I just go about my day, meditating and being aware that there is a God in Heaven that made me, loves me, died for me, and rose to life again, for me. And I do my best to be the sort of person He'd want me to be. I endeavour to have an attitude of respect and care for my fellow humans, and for Nature and the plants and animals around me, (I am a farmer), and I figure that's about what God requires, rather than following five hundred tiny little rules, that ultimately have no meaning. Because of this, my sons still love me and talk with me, I know that they love me, and I love them as well. But they are men now, and have their own lives. I am there to help if they need me, but I have to let them be free. In closing, I know it's rough for you, but please try to understand, your parents probably really do love you, they just don't know any better. It's probably how they were raised, and they honestly think they are doing the best thing by you. You can see they are wrong, but hating them won't solve anything, it will just make you have a bitter heart and a sour nature. Just grow to be the "You" that God intended you to be, which is a beautiful young lady with a compassionate and understanding nature. Of course there will be conflict with them, as you go through your teens, and you will have to grow apart from them (they'll hate this) but if you maintain that firm, yet gracious and compassionate attitude, everything will be okay, in the end. God Bless, and I wish you All the Best!

Wow, my parents are the same except for the religious part as neither they nor I believe in God. They also pampered me like crazy as a child and were overprotective and overinvolved in my school projects, but when I got to my teens they magically expected me to do a bunch of chores in the house and to become independent and responsible. Of course, that didn't happen... And they just constantly blew up at me and screamed like degenerates instead of being patient and giving me positive feedback when I did things right. I am 18 now and our relationship is still kinda toxic, but they are good providers and through the years I have found ways to deescalate their anger and communicate with them. What's most important tho is that you realize that if your parents yell a lot and blow up for minor things it's not your fault and you shouldn't feel bad about yourself and think that you are inadequate. It just means that your parents are emotionally immature and petty. Try keeping your cool when they are like that, or at least outwardly, you're entitled to be fuming inside and despise them at that moment. Don't try to argue with them at that moment, they won't be thinking rationally. Perhaps you could write in a notebook, or a blog with a password for more privacy, about what they did and how you feel about it and what you would've liked to tell them while they were yelling and insulting you. Then, sort out through your more rational thoughts and points that you could share with them when they seem to be in a good mood, preferably a Saturday or Sunday morning as a lot of parents are very irritable in the evening when they come from work. Also, try finding out on the Internet what numbers you can call to talk to someone and at least vent. Maybe you have a youth center in your area? Anyway, you are not alone in your struggles and everything you feel is totally justified. Stay safe!

Not that we make them prepare their own meals, but we do encourage them to try. My 1st and 4th children were potty trained in a fraction of the time that it took the two middle children. My stern tone works really well when disciplining three of them, but one of them becomes so terrified that he begins shaking in fear. Two of them go out of their way to help around the house while the other two expect to be treated like royalty. This list of examples can go on forever.....

@Dirty Towel We don't have good old age care in developing nations. Look up birth rates in countries with good old age healthcare. Good old age heath = few kids. Poorer people always have multiple kids because atleast one of them will be successful enough in life to survive to adulthood and take care of his or her old parents. Poor and middle class people can give their kids a good childhood with good food and clothes only if both parents work. Median salary in my city (a very big one) must be around ₹15k for a young person in their 20s. Preschools here ask people to fork out as much as ₹60k a year (in a high quality preschool though, so on the pricier end), like my cousin had to pay a couple of years ago. You do the math. I bet you are from a first world country, where old people are taken care of and people have more disposable income.

I know I was a total brat, I'm trying to grow out of it but it's hard to learn self-control all by myself when there's nobody around forcing me to do it. 🥲 On the bright side, you're right about the learning thing. Of course my parents wouldn't buy me absolutely anything in the world, but they would go OUT of their way to make my education life better. Tuition, studies, all of that student debts, they wouldn't care about the cost as long as it's for my education. I have big dreams to go continue studying overboard and I'm extremely grateful for my parents, but I feel bad 😅

[@WinkBlinkNod]

My parents were both different blends of authoritarian and neglectful. My mom being mostly authoritarian, being very controlling when I needed freedom and neglectful when I need guidance and affection. Her only means of communication was yelling. My dad was mostly neglectful, with bouts of authoritarian when conflicts arose. As a result, I’m now an anxious, depressed person who can never make a decision and has trouble forming relationships. Thanks a lot, Mom and Dad. EDIT: People! I am not "playing the victim". I was a victim of a certain kind of childhood. I said I was anxious and depressed. I didn't say I let those two things keep me from living my life or trying to improve myself. I have learned to manage my anxiety and depression but they will never go away. I will always live with them. I didn't say that I refuse to make decisions or that I let others make them for me. I meant that it's very difficult to make decisions because I'm always afraid to make the wrong one. It's hard, but I keep doing it and try to be more confident. BUT IT'S STILL HARD. I didn't say I don't have relationships or friends. I said I HAVE TROUBLE doing it. Discovering why you are the way you are and why you struggle with certain things and being able to definitively say "This is why" IS NOT the same thing as letting the negative parts of your upbringing stop you from living a meaningful life and then blaming someone else for the fact that you haven't done anything about it. You all really need to read and stop jumping to conclusions.

When you accept what had happened and don't feel victimized you will empowered to do what it is you want to do. For me personally I don't blame others for what had happened to me.

Yet I can not help but worry, that we may just end up making different mistakes as parents ourselves.

My Mom was a drug addict and her boyfriend was an alcoholic. My Dad committed suicide. I know my children may not agree with the way I do things - for instance they are not allowed on the internet though they do play some video games. They are annoyed they aren’t allowed to play Roblox. But being annoyed about something and suffering are two entirely different things. My husband and I give our children every opportunity - it’s the way he was raised and I’m so grateful to see first hand how that can play out. It doesn’t mean our kids will be immune to life but they’ll have a better chance. I don’t regret it but it does hurt that I don’t have a relationship with my families.

[@jjm152]

I dunno, both of my parents were extremely neglectful, to the point where it's almost comedic and I ended up being just extremely independent from a young age, was reasonably popular at school and as an adult I'm very successful and pretty respected. I can make friends easily if I want to. That being said, I do agree that it made me somewhat cynical about trusting people and reluctant to develop emotional relationships, but not to the point where it was a life long problem (I did eventually marry, happily too and 16 years this June) Maybe parenting style doesn't predict a childs future as much as these videos would lead us to believe. Clearly there is something about nature instead of nurture that can compensate for or overrule experience.

If everyone waited to have kids until they were ready, mankind would cease to exist. Parenting is something that needs to be figured out after the fact. However, a strong moral foundation is needed beforehand so you have something to build on rather than be a tumbleweed listening to the public’s idea of how you should raise them. Asking yourself “how would Jesus handle this situation with my child” is incredibly eye opening to any parent and helps TREMENDOUSLY when correcting/helping your child when they are going through something no matter the age.

I know for me that parenting style also caused me to be secretive. I didn’t tell my mom anything even when I should’ve.

Seems like 'authoritative' parenting (the third in the video) is hands down the best style. Doesn't seem to have any disadvantages. Seems totally reasonable.

[@lucywoomy]

Yeah, it seems to be a good balance between freedom and responsibility. Even though 30 minutes of screen time might be a bit too strict, but it depends on the situation and the age of the child. I didn’t have regulated screen time, but I don’t think I needed to. On the other side my cousin has a time restriction on his switch (he’s 8) because he could probably play all day if he wasn’t limited to 1 hour. It all depends on the situation, but I completely agree with what you said

[@Sacheess]

The disadvantage is that it's actually difficult to be a truly authorative parent, because such parents are often authoritarian in some aspects and permissive in other. For example my parents were rather authoritatian in terms of grades in school and permissive with screen time, combined with being "the smart kid", I still struggle a lot with procrastination, because in school everything was easy for me and when I started college it suddenly wasn't, but I was already used to spend my time freely.

[@dasargh]

@@Sacheess wow this clicked so much with my own experience.

[@rachelbroughton6457]

Absolutely this has to be seen as the best! I’d say (as a parent myself!) that the disadvantage of this style is that it takes a lot of work on the parents behalf, often involving unlearning behaviours from our own childhood. Teaching children about their emotions, making good decisions etc. takes a lot of work. It’s definitely worth it (no doubt!) but it is very intensive for parents. For some, such as single parents, those without support, those with multiples or lots of children, those with mental health issues, stress, demanding jobs etc. it can be challenging. I love this style of parenting and know it’s what feels best for my kids, but I also know the craziness of trying to help a toddler through a tantrum, cuddle another child who is feeling strong emotions, while also trying to do things like cook, get children ready for childcare/school, get ready for work, etc.

[@Myshingone]

Studies have shown that having more than 45 minutes of screen time every day, not only negatively affects your mood. It also negatively affects your cognitive abilty to concentrate and your memory. Furthermore it decreases your melatonin levels in the brain, which controls your ability and quality of sleep. I had no restrictions on screen time as a kid, and can confirm all of the above.

[@DeX9O2]

As a father of 2, most parents are not just one type. Almost every parent I know wants to be a good mother or father. Life is hard and unscripted. My wife and I try to balance everything out with our kiddos. I will tell you this, you will fail. But that's okay. Because you are learning right along with your children. What I can advise that seems to work without fail is to listen to them and explain everything. Also, remember their age. My son is 3 and sometimes is so clever I completely forget his age. Kids are a lot smarter than one thinks. My last piece of advice is to forgive yourself. Sometimes we as parents are harder on ourselves than anyone else.

The teacher told us: well, if this was my kid, I’d let him try out (toy we were explaining to him) by himself. It was the first time I realized that I was too hands on and very thankful for the teacher. I have changed my ways, but I am not there yet. Sometimes a blunt observation by a professional is very helpful.

One thing that bothered me though was how i never learned how to do anything because i had no one to teach me and when i was younger my mother wouldn't let me do it at all, i had to learn all at once when i started living as an adult (cooking/cleaning and all that adult stuff lol), i also grew up to be very detached and cold around others, not that i'm not sociable or can't have relationships but i just have a hard time truly connecting with other people and feeling more empathy for them.

@@geebeedee9509 it was a problem until i was 13 Since i had the ability to create an internet addiction so early on i just studied or spent my time on games and KZbin so i had no friends. When i was 13 i felt really empty because of my lifestyle, until i saw my mom getting my older brother some exercise equipment...then i remembered "oh, this empty lifestyle im crying about is all caused by me, i've always had the opportunity to do other things except studying and gaming" so i took up some hobbies and went outside more and my parents were super happy seeing me out of my bubble so they bought me a shit ton of equipment for everything i was getting into and it was really nice of them. I would've preferred if i had a limit to the computer since i could've explored new things earlier. But now that im using better the opportunities that my parents can give me i just became engrossed in a good lifestyle If your child is already very active since early on, then this is a good way to raise them (my older brother learned about the blessing that are my parents since very early on and now he's a role-model teen) If your child is not super active and is maybe spending too much time using the internet then maybe some limits here and there are necessary. If you let them be like my parents did, then make sure to have some talks with them every once in a while to make sure they're ok, and to remind them that you're there for them (this will encourage the natural growth that is to discover your blessings yourself while also not suffering so much emotional damage like me). But if you dont want to risk emotional damage AT ALL then just put up some restrictions to their devices and sign them up for some sports or something

My personal opinion: if you want to be a parent there should be free courses on how to parent properly and get like a test done to see if you can or can’t bring up a human being. It’s a huge responsibility since this child depends on you entirely at early stages and will, in the future, reflect your parenting methods onto other people and things, potentially harming the child itself or others… I see bad parents everywhere and the child is growing up in a toxic way and nothing can be said to them, quite sad and disturbing. However the outcome isn’t 100% the parents fault as children can have disturbances and issues from the beginning and can have difficult personalities

If you die tonight, do you know where you're going? Did you know that Jesus Christ is the only way to Heaven and He loves you? Through Him, God offers you a FREE gift - forgiveness. All you need to do is repent, turn away from your sins and evil ways, from now on put your faith completely in Jesus Christ and be obedient to Him. Explanation: God doesn’t want anybody in hell because He loves us, but you must understand why we deserve hell and why those who refuse to live under His authority will go there. (Matthew 12:30) ''Whoever is not with me is against me, and whoever does not gather with me scatters.'' He gave us the law (Ten Commandments) not to make us righteouss, but rather to show us our sin (Romans 3:20). God gave us free will and since Adam sinned in the garden, sin is the nature of our flesh and we’ve all sinned. (Romans 3:23) and the law demands death to those who sin (Romans 6:23). For someone to be justified before God they have to be sinless, that's why everyone need Jesus Christ. None of us are good in God’s eyes, because for God good means moral perfection. We all have broken God’s commandments, we all have sinned in our lives so none of us are good. ‘’For whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles at just one point is guilty of breaking all of it.’’ (James 2:10). ‘’For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.’’ (John 3:16) That’s why only Jesus can save us, because He lived a perfect and sinless life and is the only worthy sacrifice and died for our sins. We aren’t saved based on our good deeds/works, but only by the grace of God through faith. ''For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith - and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God - not by works, so that no one can boast. (Ephesians 2:8-9) He said ‘’it is finished’’ (John 19:30), which means He paid the fine for our sins (past, present, future) to be forgiven if we repent and trust in Him. ‘’Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord.’’ (Acts 3:19) Biblically, a person who repents does not continue willfully in sin. Repentance is a turning from sin, and it always results in changed behavior (Luke 3:8). While sorrow from sin is not equivalent to repentance, it is certainly an element of scriptural repentance (2 Corinthians 7:10). Do not play a hypocrite. (John 3:3) Jesus replied, "Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again." If you confess that Jesus is Lord (John 10:30) and believe that God raised Him from the dead, then you’ll be saved. (Romans 10:9) You are born again with the spirit of Christ (2 Corinthians 5:17). Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him. (John 3:36) Bible is the Word of God. You may ask how so because it is written by men. Just like a letter is written by a pen, so is Bible written by God using men. Bible/God's Word was written over 1600 year period by 40 different authors and 66 books, all leading to the coming of God's Son - Jesus Christ. There is consistency of revelation throughout a long time of period, many prophecies being fulfilled. In the Book of Isaiah you see details about how Jesus Christ suffered even if it was written a long time before His coming. In the Book of Daniel 500 BC you can read about Alexander the great who lived 300 BC. We are living in the last days and Jesus Christ will return soon. 2 Timothy 3:1 ''But understand this, that in the last days there will come times of difficulty.'' 2 Timothy 3:2 ''For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, proud, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy,'' Luke 21:11 ''There will be great earthquakes, and in various places famines and pestilences. And there will be terrors and great signs from heaven.'' 1 Thessalonians 5:3 ''While people are saying, "Peace and safety," destruction will come on them suddenly, as labor pains on a pregnant woman, and they will not escape.'' Matthew 24:39 ''And they were unaware until the flood came and swept them all away, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.'' Luke 21:31 ''So also, when you see these things taking place, you know that the kingdom of God is near.'' 2 Thessalonians 2:3-4 ''Let no one deceive you in any way. For that day will not come, unless the rebellion comes first, and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of destruction, who opposes and exalts himself against every so-called god or object of worship, so that he takes his seat in the temple of God, proclaiming himself to be God.'' Revelation 13:16-18 ''And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.'' Matthew 24:21 ''For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been from the beginning of the world until now, no, and never will be.'' 1 Thessalonians 4:16 ''For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first.'' Matthew 24:19 ''But woe to those who are pregnant and to those who are nursing babies in those days!'' Matthew 24:42 ''Therefore, stay awake, for you do not know on what day your Lord is coming.'' Mark 1:15 ''The time has come," Jesus said. "The kingdom of God has come near. Repent and believe the good news!"' Get right with God and start your relationship with Jesus Christ right now before it’s too late, because there’s not much time left!. "But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.’’ (Mark 13:32) You may start with a simple prayer from the bottom of your heart, TRULY believing that God listens and cares. (Jeremiah 29:13) ''You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.'' Get to know Christ through His word. At first I recommend reading Gospel of John and book of Romans. God bless you!

My father to be specific is a mix of authoritative and over-involved. I grew up full free to make choices, express myself, not feeling any bad amount of pressure but always within boundaries not crossing to not caring at all and being free to do whatever I wanted no matter what. At the same time he mincromanaged a lot of stuff and helped with everything even the smallest things from making a salad to help me buy clothes. This help gave me more free time and relaxation but made me a bit more dependent than I would like to be. However I still believe this mix is the best one for a parent and a child. You are involved in everything together in a fun way. It is a relationship of friends but with also rules and boundaries that everyone should have. There kind be problems if you over-involve or if you loosen up the rules a lot but with some balance it's the best scenario.

Im glad you are happy with the way you were raised. Your explanation here is exactly why people saying there is only one good way to parent drives me crazy. There are books out there about attachment parenting and all the negative issues it can lead to. This could make a parent feel like they're not really supposed to help or play with their child but instead sit back and observe, let the child learn and play on their own. Ive heard people even go so far as to call a parent that helps a child onto a jungle gym at the park a "helicopter" parent. We need to stop putting so much emphasis on what NOT to do, because then people are too afraid to even come close that, and instead talk more about what TO do, which is implementing a healthy balance of the styles. Extreme opinions on the "right" and "wrong" ways to parent leads to too much judgment.

@@Krstna6 Of course in life and a lot of topics there is not one correct answer like it is a quiz. It is something complicated, viewed in a lot of ways and perceived differently by every parent and every child.

As you said maybe leaving your child to explore and play alone is good but in my opinion and in the way that I grew up and saw others growing up I do not agree that this way can be effective in the same way.
