Gifted Parenting - Parenting a Gifted Child

 
Chronicling my journey as the mother of a gifted child.

What's your parenting style?

December 5th 2007 12:57
How do you discipline your child? For me I do it verbally, whenever my child acts in an unacceptable manner I immediately call her attention to it. I don't like spanking, although i know there are parents who effectively use this type of disciplining. There are times though when my daughter gets on my nerves and I have to resist the urge to pinch her.

Here's a quiz created by Dr. Larry Craft that will help determine your parenting style. I took the quiz myself and the result I got is this:



Excerpt: Your parenting style is: Participative
This parenting style is patient and tolerant and such a parent naturally enjoys the nurturing process. This style of parent is best at educating and counselling children who require special attention. Too often, however, children 'become the boss' if the parent does not compensate by confidently and assertively maintaining control.


The result I got is pretty precise. Let me know yours by taking this quiz here..
