Authoritative parenting Abstract The different styles of parenting available play a significant role in the growth and development of children in western culture. No one parenting style fits every child, and as such, they should be adapted depending on the child’s and the parents’ personalities.

In the dominant western culture in the United States, the preferred child upbringing goals include confidence, independence, and social assertiveness, among others. (Choi, Kim, Kim & Park, 2013) Authoritative parenting, as the name suggests, involves parents having more control over their children’s behaviour. The parents intend to promote freedom and independence, but at the same time, exercise a certain level of control on the child.

However, not all that glitters is gold. It has a diverse effect on various divisions within healthcare, and these include financial issues, changes in workflow, temporary loss of productivity associated with m-health adoption, privacy and security concerns, among others (MINGUEL & NIEZEN, 2016). To put this in perspective, healthcare financial departments will have to do mega budgets to ensure that the m-health systems see the light.

The Family Formation The family institution has existed for a long generation now and has formed a fundamental component of society today. Blood, adoption and marriage influence the existence of persons in a particular lineage. Marriage has been the main factor that has contributed to the formation of families.

My decision to continue my studies in foreign countries Children, especially have a very limited perspective on events in their lives and most often interpret any negative experience as their fault and as evidence that there is something wrong with them and I very much believe that, the way we talk to a child becomes his or her inner voice. Many adults and children have self-doubt, anger, pressure, ego, anxiety, and stress, the feeling of loneliness, worthlessness and loss of purpose among many other negative states.
