#80: The Tougher You Are On Your Teen, The Less Likely You’ll See Positive Results

Full transparency:  This important episode, aired first on August 11, 2023. It's worth hearing again if you've heard it before!If you’ve never heard the term authoritarian parenting, it’s just a way of parenting where the parent generally insists on blind obedience to strict rules. It may involve physical punishment like spanking or hitting, usually harsh non-physical punishment (like taking property or privileges for long periods of time or for the slightest infraction), and psychological control like shaming, threatening, yelling, intimidating.THIS is not the type of parenting that instills trust, connection and long term "good behavior" in your teen. As a matter of fact, it will only do the opposite.See also, Episode 1 and Episode 10Parenting Science: Authoritarian parenting outcomes: What happens to the kids?About Gwen Dewar Show Notes and TranscriptFind our FREE Parenting Guides Here"I just wanted to let you know that I'm so thankful for your podcast! ...I'm so happy I discovered it!"
