The 4 Parenting Styles

All emotions are ok and normal, but not all behavior is ok. Emotion Coaching parents recognize that emotions are important and use them as an opportunity to connect with their child. They join with their child’s feelings, offer gentle guidance, and set limits and boundaries.

The 4 Parenting Styles

Research indicates that there are four parenting styles into which most people would fall. Parents can be good, loving parents no matter what style they use! The research does show that children who are parented using the Emotion Coaching style have far better outcomes even later in life. Most parents worry about being the best parents possible, so learning more about where you fall now and if and how you can adjust your technique can be a powerful tool to be that best parent you can be.
