Question

Children of permissive parents are socially competent, self-reliant, and socially responsible. fail to learn respect for others and have difficulty controlling their behavior. use their caregiver as a secure base from which to explore. handle independence poorly and often compare themselves with others.

Answer 1

Choice (b) is the most correct. These children tend to have trouble controlling their own behaviors and have trouble learning respect for others and the appropriate boundaries for behaving. Since they have usually found ways to get what they are wanting, they feel that this is how to act with everyone, and it leads to negative social behaviors.
