In this episode of Therapy in Progress, we dive into the four classic parenting styles—authoritative, authoritarian, permissive, and neglectful—and explore how each impacts child development, emotional regulation, and long-term relational patterns. We break down the psychology behind each approach, share real-life examples, and reflect on how cultural, generational, and personal experiences shape parenting. Whether you're a parent, future therapist, or curious about how your upbringing shaped you, this episode is packed with insight, humor, and heart.
