Researchers at the University of Virginia have discovered four main parenting styles for American families. There is the faith-based style, which uses religion as a moral standard. Next are the progressively engage parents who encourage problem-solving and decision-making skills for their children to learn virtues. Third are detached parents who tend to take an outsider’s perspective of their children’s lives. Last, are those families still seeking the American dream, while instilling a sense of optimism in their children.
