Question

Fourth grader Hunter is not well-liked by his peers. He is always picking fights and tries to hog the classroom games and playground equipment all to himself. What style of parenting do Hunter's parents likely practice?

a. neglectful b. authoritative c. permissive d. authoritarian

Answer 1

c. permissive

Step-by-step explanation:

Permissive parenting is a form of parenting in which the parents offer more than is demanded by the child. these types of parents do not teach the children much about the rules and regulations. Also, they do not have much expectation for their child to react like a mature figure. The mentality of the parents lies upon the thought that children will always be children. Hunter's behavior in the above case is because of his parents' parenting style of bringing him up.
