Parenting 502 Research Paper

Reaction Paper #2

Counseling 502
Parenting is a very important task, a gift from God, and should not be taken lightly. In our society today, many people are taking the role of parenting as a big brother/sister role, or treating their own children as friends and not as the authority figure over them, and the guide that God has placed them to be. God expects us to raise our children to become product, positive, Christians, not just productive citizens in our society. In our text, we learned of the different parenting styles--authoritative, authoritarian, permissive, and the uninvolved parent. I know parents in every category. Sadly, in many cases it is easy to tell which children have which kind of parents.
