Answer:

A. authoritative.

Step-by-step explanation:

Authoritative and authoritarian are the most common parenting applied. Both method have as common aspect to develop authority, but they are different when are applied.

Authoritative parenting are more likely to be warm, comprehensive and responsive. These method helps children to be happier and healthier because they live in an environment where they have to respect authority but not in a cold and negative way as authoritarian parents do.

On the other hand, authoritarian parents imply authority but in the opposite way than authoritative. They are cold and extremely mandatory, without any type of responsive attitude. Children must obey no matter what, without reply or reason.

Studies are shown that children in an authoritative parenting environment are more resilient and show good emotional control.
