1 – Given what you have learned about child development and Baumrind’s classifications of parenting style (in the text), I would like you to cite and discuss at least 2 examples of parenting – both good and bad that you may have observed. (Examples from real life and/or media sources are fine.) If ready examples do not come to mind, try watching the film, Parenthood or a similar source.

Try to classify (and present evidence to support your classification) the kind of parenting you see/saw in the example you cite.

If you use an outside source, be sure to reference it in APA-style. (1-2 paragraphs) 

 2 – We know that children, their ability to understand, their ability to comply with requests, and to misbehave change with age – given this, are there developmental periods when different parenting styles are appropriate? Yes or no, and why? 

Are there concerns with using the work of Baumrind to classify parenting? 

Support your answer with examples or outside sources referenced in APA-style. (2 paragraphs)

 3 – FORMS OF DISCIPLINE THAT WORK – 

 – find a reputable article that addresses discipline from the popular press BUT that also cites research to support use of the method (magazine, newspaper or journal) and summarize it for your classmates. THEN, connect it directly to discussions of discipline in the text (you can find where it is discussed in the text by consulting the Subject Index at the back of the book) OR find an article that supports your method of choice (2 paragraphs).

If you use an outside source, be sure to reference it in APA-style.
