10. Summary of thesis results:

The research results show that parents in the research group use all three types of educational styles: democratic, authoritarian and liberal. In which, the democratic educational style is the most dominant, followed by the authoritarian educational style and the lowest percentage is the liberal educational style. There is no statistically significant difference in the educational style between fathers and mothers in the same family. In families where parents have the same educational style, the percentage is low. The educational style of the father and the educational style of the mother in each area of ​​family education have significant differences. While the mother tends to use the democratic educational style, the father often uses the authoritarian and liberal educational style for children.

Parental education style and children's psychological development are positively correlated. According to the parents themselves, those who use an authoritarian education style tend to create children who are anxious, fearful, and shy but quite proficient in personal hygiene as well as in dressing. On the contrary, parents who use a democratic education style find that their children are confident, cheerful, sociable, and capable of being independent in daily life. In addition, the data also allows us to note that children who "can't do anything by themselves" seem to be mainly concentrated in children whose parents use a liberal education style. These children are often comfortable and free in all activities. From a certain perspective, it is also considered a favorable condition for children's development, but we believe that if this freedom and comfort do not take place within a framework or limit, it may create adverse consequences for the child's socialization process later on.

Parenting styles are influenced by specific factors such as occupation, family income and gender of the child. People who work in law and politics often use an authoritarian style of parenting and they do not agree with the idea of ​​teaching children in a liberal way. Meanwhile, people in the teacher group are always close, friendly and use love for children, so they always tend to use a democratic style of parenting. Only the business group and the group of officials and civil servants tend to choose a liberal style of parenting more than the other groups.

In terms of income, most high-income parents choose an authoritarian parenting style with their children. On the other hand, they also tend to use a laissez-faire parenting style in raising their children.

In addition, the gender of the child also has a significant influence on the practice of parental educational styles. The majority of parents in the research group of the topic tend to choose an authoritarian educational style for their sons, with the desire to train their children to be disciplined. Meanwhile, because they believe that girls have better awareness and are more obedient, parents tend to choose a liberal educational style for this group of subjects.

11. Practical application:

The research results of the thesis can be useful documents for kindergartens, educational centers and parents with children from 3 to 6 years old. Based on the research results of the topic, parents can see that in the process of educating their children, parents should not completely let their children go and should not be too rigid with them. On the contrary, parents should create comfort for their children, confidence to participate in activities but in moderation and within the allowed framework. At the same time, parents need to proactively spend time with their children, share their feelings and emotions with them in order to be closer to and understand them better.

12. Further research directions:

If possible, further research will be conducted on the influence of parents' educational style on children's psychological development to help parents clearly see the educational style suitable for their children in order to improve the effectiveness of educational work.

11. Summary of the thesis results:

In educational practice, parents are studied using the three types of parenting style: authoritative, authoritarian and uninvolved. In particular, authoritative style prevails over all, followed by the authoritarian style and the lowest proportion uninvolved style. There are no differences that were significantly significant for the type of education style between parents in the same household. In where families parents have identical education style accounting for the low rate. Educational styles of fathers and educational style of the mother in each family education sector differ significantly. While mothers tend to use democratic style of education, the father often uses authoritarian style of education and free for children.

Parenting styles and the psychological development of children is positively correlated with each other. According to the parents, who uses authoritarian style oftend to produce children or anxious, afraid, timid but are quite proficient in personal hygiene as well as in dress. In contrast, parents use authoritative style their child noticed that kids are confident, cheerful, sociable, able to be independent in daily living. In addition, the data also allows us to note that apparently the young "do not order" focused mainly in children whose parents use uninvolved style.

Parenting styles influenced by specific factors such as occupation, income, and family members of child sex. Those who do work related to law and politicians often use domineering style education with children and they do not endorse the views uninvolved style.

Only business group and team officials, civil servants tend to choose the style liberal arts education is higher than the other groups.

For income, the majority of parents with high incomes choose authoritarian style with children. On the other hand, they also tend to use uninvolved style in educating their children.

Besides, the sex of the baby is not small to govern the practice of the type style of parental education. The majority of parents belonging to research groups of subjects tend to choose the authoritarian style for boys, with the desire forged in disciplined children. While saying that girls have better sense, more educated, so parents tend to choose the type uninvolved style for this population. .
