Authoritarian Violent Parenting
Authoritarian Violent Parenting
There are three kinds of discipline. They can be referred as "authoritarian parenting," "permissive parenting" and "democratic parenting."In the following essay, Iwill explain the problems you will encounter if you use authoritarian parenting. In later articles, I will address permissive parenting, and democratic parenting.
Parents who use authoritarian parenting are either using "authoritarian violent parenting" or "authoritarian non-violent parenting."
When you use Authoritarian Violent Parenting as a means of discipline, all your control comes through hitting, spanking, threatening, yelling, humiliating, blaming, belittling, criticizing, etc. To do this means you control your child by physical or verbal abuse.
You can already see the problems you face with authoritarian violent parenting. Clearly the home atmosphere will be tense, rigid and oppressive. With this form of parenting, your children will often feel angry, hostile, scared or powerless, and will have low self-esteem.
Through authoritarian violent parenting children learn violence, competitiveness, lying and blind obedience to authority, and they end up having no self-discipline. What we then see in the adolescent teen is a child who will likely rebel, run away from home, act out with fights, drugs, sexual promiscuity, etc. and become hurtful to herself or to others.
As you can see, in authoritarian violent parenting, the parents ultimately run out of power - just as violent dictators who rule countries with this same style eventually get overthrown.
Research study results on instances of harsher punishment:
One large study showed that the more parents spanked children for antisocial behaviour, the more the antisocial behaviour increased.
The study showed that the more children are hit, the more likely they are to hit others including peers and siblings and, as they grow into adults, they are more likely to hit their spouses. Hitting children teaches them that it is acceptable to hit others who are smaller and weaker.
A Canadian government study for children at risk showed that being hit as children are associated with more depressive symptoms and psychiatric disorders as adults.
A landmark meta-analysis of 88 corporal punishment research studies of over six decades showed that corporal punishment of children was associated with negative outcomes including increased delinquent and antisocial behaviour and increased risk of child abuse and spousal abuse.
