Parenting styles according to Baumrind are divided into authoritarian, authoritative, permissive, and uninvolved.
The four parenting patterns are divided into two behavioural dimensions, namely the emotional dimension consisting of parents who are warm, responsive, and concerned with the needs of their children, but it can also be the other way around, namely, parents who show rejection, are unresponsive and are not involved in the interests of their children.
The second is the control dimension, namely parents who are very demanding of children and prohibit the behaviour of children or vice versa parents who are very permissive and do not demand anything (George W.
Noblit.
R, et all, 2.
