Question

P.J.’s parents provide neither warmth for him nor control of his actions. They do not spend much time with him, and they do give him much opportunity for any real emotional bonding with them. According to Baumrind (1975, 1991), P.J. is receiving ____ parenting.

Answer 1

P.J. is receiving uninvolved parenting.

Step-by-step explanation:

Uninvolved parenting is characterized by absent, distant, and poorly involved parents in their children's lives. It's the most unwelcome style of parenting because they leave their children alone on their own. These types of parents offer no support, guidance, or anything that teaches and helps their children to survive in the world we live in.

In addition to not providing emotional support to children, this kind of parenting does not set clear rules for children, does not meet the needs of children, does not listen to what children have to say, nor provides any teaching. That is, they are totally negligent parents.
