I have a pyschology project due and I need to find substantial information about dismissive parenting style. All I can find so far is about three sentences worth of info all saying basically the same thing: Dismissive parents have low limits and low love. I need more substance. Things like pyschological effects (short and long term), examples, etc.

The reason I ask is that I’ve been collecting parenting books and magazines ever since I got married, hoping that soon we’d have a baby. Well, I’m still waiting for my dream to come true so I’ve been faithfully holding on to them. But now, I’m wondering if they need to be tossed. Of course I know that the internet is full of resources and I try to stay current, even learning all about elimination communication and things like that, but sometimes it’s just nice to have things in print. My question is, being that my printed material doesn’t have the latest parenting info, is it of any value? I know I have to have the very latest information on things like safety, but what other types of info go out of date quickly? I guess another way to ask is this…moms – what’s the oldest parenting material you’ve felt comfortable using?

I am running a children’s english school in China currently. I myself have a six years old daughter and two year old son. I got a lot opportunities in discussing with different parents about how to educate our kids. I find out parents in China really need be educated in a lot of aspects. So I am start looking for good parenting programme, hopefully our school can introduce it. I am very much appreciate on any clues.

I just wanted to know the family life of Argentina because I was thinking of living there and making a family. So I want to know a) the parenting styles, b) Child-rearing Practices and c) the family structure in Argentina thank you!

Im 14, and gay. My mom doesnt accept it and when she gets in that place, she becomes verbally abusive and at the worst violent or sexually grotesque (making me do weird things). Is there a way that I can get her parenting rights abolished and be adopted by the family of my choice?

Why is it that the law requires people to take parenting classes before they become a foster parent, but..
When a couple is expecting a biological child, the law doesn’t require them to take any classes.

That sounds one-sided to me; shouldn’t all soon-to-be-parents be held to the same standards?

What benefits whould this have? I am writing a Thesis on getting a program started through the government requiring parents to have a parenting lecture or class during their hospital stay. Any comments are appreciated. Thanks!

My father-in-law was an emotionally absent father, and now my husband is having a hard time being close with our son. He loves our son to death, but he expects him to act like a little adult, is harsh with him when he doesn’t behave the way he wants, and is withdrawn from showing him affection. I understand why it is hard for him to open up and be close to people and that he shows affection in his own ways, but it’s killing me to watch this happen between him and our son. Our son idolizes him, and I’ve talked to my husband about the need to show him affection and not expect the world out of him (our son is only 2), but he only tries for a short period of time, or ignores what I said completely. Counseling is out of the question (he barely talks to me about this, he is NOT going to set foot in a counselors office) What can I do to get through to him, that being a father mean more than just being a disciplinarian?
