Please indicate your preferred style of parenting. Does it, or will it, agree with your spouse's/parent's style?

Or do you not practice parenting your children, and do they rear themselves?

I wasn't sure what my parenting style would be since i don't agree with Permissive, Authoritarian, Authoritative and obviously the Uninvolved parent. So when i researched parenting and thought of my values this explained exactly what my parenting style would be.
A combination of "Parental responsiveness (also referred to as parental warmth or supportiveness) refers to "the extent to which parents intentionally foster individuality, self-regulation, and self-assertion by being attuned, supportive, and acquiescent to children’s special needs and demands"
"Parental demandingness (also referred to as behavioral control) refers to "the claims parents make on children to become integrated into the family whole, by their maturity demands, supervision, disciplinary efforts and willingness to confront the child who disobeys"
My husband's ideas are different than mine but when i explain to him why i prefer similar methods to the ones described above he sees my point of view and tells me he understands why it would be the most effective parenting style.
