Answer to Question 1

Candice is thirteen years old. Her mother, Janet,is an affectionate, caring, and lenient parent. She listens to Candice's problems at school and never scolds her when she does something wrong. Even when she comes home late, Janet never scolds her or asks why she's late. Janet believes that by being a liberal parent, she will help instill self-reliance and independence in Candice. This is an example of permissive parenting.In the permissive style, parents are usually warm and responsive but not demanding. They place few requirements on their children for orderly behavior or doing household tasks. Instead of setting boundaries, permissive parents are indulgent. They don't bully or tyrannize their children, but adolescents raised in lenient households are often less mature, less responsible, and less able to assume leadership positionsin adulthood.
