Permissive Parenting
Captions available
The idea
Permissive parenting combines low demands with high responsiveness, offering warmth with few expectations.
In practice
A parent is affectionate and available and sets no curfew at all.
Where people slip
Permissive is not neglectful. Warmth is present, and structure is what is missing.
