Authoritative parenting is often considered the ideal style for its combination of warmth and flexibility while still making it clear that the parents are in charge. Children of authoritative parents know what is expected of them. Their parents explain the reasons for the rules and the consequences for breaking them. Parents also listen to their child's opinions, but the parent remains the ultimate decision maker.
