Document Summary

More of a friendship relationship than authority. Separate from parents so they are not the deciding factor. Gather and receive information differently, ask help from peers and teachers, etc. Detachment theory: not severing emotional ties but a change in the bond, progression, not abrupt, small distances over time. Individuation: process of developing our own identity, healthiest for authoritative parenting, for authoritarian parents have kids on two extremes: childish or total rebellion. Changes in view of parents: de-idealize parents, see them more as humans, start differing on views. Authoritative parenting: high control, high warmth: family cohesion: how close the family is, family relationship: positive styles need to remain through all ages. Early adolescents think more about immediate rewards while late adolescents think about consequences.
