1. a. Read the extract from a blog to parents. What is it about?

Parenting ['peərəntɪŋ] is the activities that promote and support the physical, emotional, social and intellectual development of a child from babyhood to adulthood. A parenting style is a combination of strategies that parents use to raise their child and can be described as an emotional climate in the family. Parenting styles vary by historical period, social class, race, and a few other social features. Parenting practices are specific behaviours parents use to socialise with their children. They can refer to rules, praise, rewards, expectations, punishments or any other type of regular interaction that a parent has with their child.

Psychologists divide parenting styles into four groups on the basis of two criteria. The first one shows how much parents control their children and demand from them. It is about the boundaries set for children and how parents discipline their children if some rules are broken. Parenting practices can vary from taking privileges away to sending a child to the corner for a timeout, from grounding them to physical punishment. The second criterion characterises the warmth of parent-child relations and shows how responsive and sensitive parents are to their child's needs and to what degree parents accept them.

c) the process of raising, bringing up children;

d) not to allow a child to go out or use their cellphone as a punishment for breaking the rules;

e) train someone to obey rules or a code of behaviour, using punishment to correct disobedience;

obey (v.) – obedience (n.) – disobedience (n.)

f) a short period of time when a child must sit quietly as a punishment for behaving badly.

c. Discuss the questions below.

1. What parenting practices are mentioned in ex. 1a? What do you think of them? How effective are they? In what situations do parents use them?

2. Should parents react only to their child's misbehaviour? Why (not)? What about their good behaviour?

3. Do you think it's OK if children expect that their academic achievements will be rewarded financially? Why (not)?

4. Should parents demand that their children obey without question, or should children have a say in whatever boundaries their parents set? Why (not)?

5. Do you think that grandparents are more responsive than parents? Why (not)?
