A STUDY ON THE IMPACT OF PARENTING STYLES ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF INDEPENDENCE IN 3-6-YEAR-OLD CHILDREN

Parenting style refers to clear patterns and behavioral tendencies exhibited by parents in children's daily lives. These habits focus on specific attitudes, emotions, parenting concepts, and parenting behaviors. Based on the directionality and dimensional classification of different family parenting models, they can be categorized into five types: overindulgent, democratic, permissive, authoritarian, and inconsistent (Wang, 2021). Some scholars believe that the family environment plays an indispensable role in young children's growth, with the impact primarily resulting from family parenting patterns. Additionally, some studies indicate that early childhood is a crucial stage in human development. To ensure happiness and satisfaction during early childhood, family education must be emphasized. Only by adopting correct educational methods can children develop healthy social skills.
