Discuss how each parenting style contributes to children’s cognitive and emotional development. Be specific. Be sure to include discussions on the dimensions of parenting associated with each style and how they correlate with IQ development and emotional development. Talk about the differences in discipline versus punishment and how they relate to parenting styles and cognitive and emotional development. End your entry with a discussion on which parenting style you believe to be the best and support this with evidence learned from class.
