Answer 1

A) Uninvolved

Step-by-step explanation:

There are usually four types of parenting style:

1. Permissive.

2. Authoritative.

3. Authoritarian.

4. Uninvolved.

Uninvolved parenting: Also referred to as neglectful parenting.

In this type of parenting style, the parents lack the responsibility for their child's needs. The parents give less or attention to the child and they are often dismissive, entirely neglectful, and indifferent.

Due to the lack of care, attention, and support from the parents, the child develops issues like low self-esteem.
