Abstract: 
Parenting and the parenting style each parent adopts play a crucial role in shaping the personality and behavior of children (Wenar C & Kerig P 2000). According to Clarke-Stewart, A. (2006), parenting style refers to the set of activities aimed at the smooth care and development of children. Parental care involves children, parents, and other family members in continuous interaction throughout life. Thus, exploring the type of parenting used by the parent plays a significant role in understanding children's behaviors. There are many parenting styles; however, this paper presents the democratic-permissive type and the authoritarian. Additionally, their differences and the possible effects on children are highlighted.
