1. child-centered

   A parenting style is a psychological construct representing standard strategies that parents use in their child rearing. The quality of parenting can be more essential than the quantity of time spent with the child. For instance, the parent may be engaging in a different activity and not demonstrating enough interest in the child. Parenting styles are the representation of how parents respond to and make demands on their children. Parenting practices are specific behaviors, while parenting styles represent broader patterns of parenting practices. There are various theories and opinions on the best ways to rear children, as well as differing levels of time and effort that parents are willing to invest. Children go through different stages in life, therefore parents create their own parenting styles from a combination of factors that evolve over time as children begin to develop their own personalities. During the stage of infancy, parents try to adjust to a new lifestyle in terms of adapting and bonding with their new infant. Developmental psychologists distinguish between the relationship between the child and parent, which ideally is one of attachment, and the relationship between the parent and child, referred to as bonding. In the stage of adolescence, parents encounter new challenges, such as adolescents seeking and desiring freedom. A child's temperament and parents' cultural patterns have an influence on the kind of parenting style a child may receive. It is not clear as to whether a child's education is part of parenting. Early research in parenting and child development found that parents who provide their children with proper nurture, independence and firm control, have children who appear to have higher levels of competence and are socially skilled and proficient. Showing love and nurturing children with care and affection encourages positive, physical, and mental progress in children. Additional developmental skills result from positive parenting styles including: maintaining a close relationship with others, being self-reliant, and being independent. During the mid 1980s, researchers began to explore how specific parenting styles influence a child's development later in life. Diana Baumrind's influential typology divides parenting styles into three styles, the authoritative, authoritarian and indulgent (or permissive) styles.

1. child-centered

   Child-centered refers to a philosophy or approach that places the interests, needs, and learning methods of the child at the core of their education or upbringing. This method emphasizes the individual child's unique qualities, promotes their autonomy and decision-making abilities, encourages active learning and exploration, and fosters their growth and development at their own pace. Rather than focusing on a structured curriculum, or adult-dictated activities, the child-centered approach is about understanding and adapting to each child's natural abilities, interests, and learning style.
