Authoritarian: These parents set absolute standards and rules for their
children. There is very little communication between the parent and
the child regarding rules and regulations. These parents rely on force
and punishment to enforce their standards. They show very little
warmth towards their children. Children do not get involved in family
decision-making, even in matters that involve them. Baumrind found
that preschoolers of authoritarian parents were generally anxious,
withdrawn and unhappy.
