How is psychological control vs. behavioral control by parents

 Experimenters studying fatherhood and child development distinguish between behavioral control and cerebral control. Behavioral control includes parents' attempts to set clear rules and follow the conditioning of children, while cerebral control includes parents' attempts to set limits on children's learning and hobbies.

 Maternal gesture control is usually associated with better child development issues. For example, children and adolescents are less likely to take medication and make obnoxious gestures if their parents set rules and restrictions on their gestures (eg, curfew, staying home at certain times, telling parents where they are going and who is going). they With).

 Maternal cerebral control, by mismatch, is usually associated with milder child developmental problems. For example, children and adolescents are more likely to feel anxious and depressed if their parents use cerebral control strategies to influence their children's studies and hobbies. Two common cerebral control strategies are guilt induction (making children feel ashamed if they do not participate in their parents' activities and hobbies) and love rejection (making children feel unloved if they do not participate in their parents' activities and hobbies). activities and hobbies of parents.

 Despite these general patterns of finds, there are some intriguing artistic differences. In particular, behavioral control is more common in one artistic environment than another, is likely to decrease over time as children develop earlier in one artistic environment than in others, and is associated with other aspects of parenthood. children differently in different societies.

 For example, in some artistic environments, parents who use more behavioral control are also more warm and affectionate towards their children, whereas in other artistic environments, advanced behavioral control is not associated with maternal warmth or is associated with lower maternal warmth. In all societies, parents tend to loosen control over their behavior as children progress through adolescence, although there are artistic differences in the periods when parents (and adolescents) suggest that parents should hand over control to adolescents and at the rate at which control changes. overtime.

 In contrast to the artistic variability of behavioral control, cerebral control appears to be detrimental to the well-being of children in any artistic setting. What makes cerebral control particularly problematic is that it tends to devalue children's gestures and the impoliteness of their individuality. Especially when children enter adolescence, cerebral control is associated with the inability of parents to realize that they can be different and still be connected to their children.

 In any artistic setting, children and teens rejoice that their parents have legal authority over certain aspects of their lives. Children and adolescents are more likely to believe that their parents have legal authority over disciplines related to morality, health, and safety than over specific disciplines (for example, the clothes a teenager might wear or the music they listen to). 

 In some creative groups, teens are more likely to believe that they really should agree with their parents when they separate, while in other creative groups, teens anticipate they fit to be different and follow their own preferences. The impact of maternal behavioral and cerebral control on the well-being of children depends in part on.

 The most important thing for parents is that establishing a clear understanding of gestures and covering up the conventions of children and adolescents can help problematic actions. But it allows children and teens to observe their activities and hobbies without trying to make them feel ashamed or unloved if those activities and hobbies differ from their parent's. 

 In addition, he pays attention to creating environments and children's development over time to adapt to parenting in response to the changing needs of children as they become more independent in their teens.
