Parenting Survey |
A Survey About Parenting Styles
The purpose of this survey is to explore trends in parenting, as well as to compare parenting styles between parents. Please follow these instructions when answering the questions:
1. We all occasionally deviate from our preferred parenting style. When I use the term "regularly," I mean that something is typically a part of your parenting style. If you spanked your child once and regretted it, then spanking is not a regular part of your parenting style. However, if you regularly engage in behavior you regret, this is a part of your regular parenting style. For example, yelling at your kids most days makes it a regular part of your parenting.
2. Please be honest. Parenting is hard, and there is no judgment here.
3. If a question is not clear to you, please do not answer it. If a question does not apply to you, please do not answer it.
4. You co-parent refers to the person who co-parents with you. If your child's other parent has abandoned them, please think back on when that parent was present. If they were never present, leave questions about them blank. If someone who is not your child's parent is the most active parent--for example, a step-parent or grandparent--please answer questions about your co-parent with them in mind.
