Explanation:

Permissive parenting is identified by almost no rules, usually using that non-restrictive attitude as a way to try to make the kid happy, this can cause a lack of discipline and control over the child, that can be seriously detrimental in important situations, and have consequences in the development of the child, for example, causing lack of self-control.
