each. Part B: Post findings and make 2 comments to the class blog like “How can logical and
natural consequences effect self-esteem, resilience and stress?” “Are they positive or negative
contributors?”

Module 5: Guidance Observation

Go to a public area like the play area at the mall or a sporting event and watch parents and child interact. Keep a tally of all the guidance techniques you see.

Were more direct or indirect strategies used?

Were they more positive or negative?

Please check back and comment on what others have seen.

Module 3: Caregiving in your childhood

Think about your own childhood and growing up. How did your guardians, whether parents, step-parents, grandparents or others, raise you? Which style best fits them? Do you think your culture played a role in how you were raised?

Remember different caregivers can have different styles, and the style does not change everyday if is the overall actions and words of the person. Overall a parent was authoritarian, but at moments a child can talk and discuss things, an example of authoritative, but the parent is grouped with the authoritarian parent.

Post a paragraph or two. Please post to the extent that you feel comfortable.
