Authoritarian- Strong willed parents who want their kids to do exactly what they say. Ex. They say jump, kids should say how high. Dictatorship
Democratic (authoritative)- These parents work with their children to set boundries the children are comfortable with.
Permissive- These parents have very little involvement in their childrens life. Children are usually not disiplined or parents might ground them from tv when they are angry but then forget about it an hour later and let the kids watch tv. Children basically have absolute freedom and run the household.

Baumrind’s 3 parenting styles & their effect on personality development of children: Permissive, Authoritarian, & Authoritive
Permissive parents come in two styles:
(a) permissive-indifferent, the parent who sets few limits and provides little in the way of attention, interest, or emotional support, and
(b) permissive-indulgent, the parent who is highly involved but places few demands or controls on the child. Children of permissive-indifferent parents have poor self-control (becoming demanding and disobedient) and poor social skills. Children of permissive-indulgent parents often fail to learn respect for others and tend to be impulsive, immature, and out of control.
Authoritarian : These parents are rigid and punitive. They value unquestioning obedience and mature responsibility from their children, while remaining aloof and detached. An authoritarian parent might say, “Don’t ask questions. Just do it my way or else.” Children of authoritarian parents are easily upset, moody, aggressive, and generally have poor communication skills.
Authoritative : These parents are tender, caring, and sensitive toward their children. But they also set firm limits and enforce them, while encouraging increasing responsibility. As you might expect, children do best w/ authoritative parents. They become self-reliant, self-controlled, and high achieving. They also seem more content, goal oriented, friendly, and socially competent in their dealings w/ others.

Oh, I think I know this.
Permissive, authoritarian, and authoritative. Permissive is self-explanatory, authoritarian is more like a dictatorship, and authoritative is more like the "iron hand in a velvet glove" style.

Parenting Styles
From Vincent Iannelli, M.D.,
Authoritarian
Authoritarian parents always try to be in control and exert their control on the children. These parents set strict rules to try to keep order, and they usually do this without much expression of warmth and affection.
They attempt to set strict standards of conduct and are usually very critical of children for not meeting those standards. They tell children what to do, they try to make them obey and they usually do not provide children with choices or options.
Authoritarian parents don't explain why they want their children to do things. If a child questions a rule or command, the parent might answer, "Because I said so." Parents tend to focus on bad behavior, rather than positive behavior, and children are scolded or punished, often harshly, for not following the rules.
Children with authoritarian parents usually do not learn to think for themselves and understand why the parent is requiring certain behaviors.
Permissive
Permissive parents give up most control to their children. Parents make few, if any, rules, and the rules that they make are usually not consistently enforced. They don't want to be tied down to routines. They want their children to feel free. They do not set clear boundaries or expectations for their children's behavior and tend to accept in a warm and loving way, however the child behaves.
Permissive parents give children as many choices as possible, even when the child is not capable of making good choices. They tend to accept a child's behavior, good or bad, and make no comment about whether it is beneficial or not. They may feel unable to change misbehavior, or they choose not to get involved.
Democratic Or Authoritative
Democratic parents help children learn to be responsible for themselves and to think about the consequences of their behavior. Parents do this by providing clear, reasonable expectations for their children and explanations for why they expect their children to behave in a particular manner. They monitor their children's behavior to make sure that they follow through on rules and expectations. They do this in a warm and loving manner. They often, "try to catch their children being good" and reinforcing the good behavior, rather than focusing on the bad.
For example, a child who leaves her toys on a staircase may be told not to do this because, "Someone could trip on them and get hurt and the toy might be damaged." As children mature, parents involve children in making rules and doing chores: "Who will mop the kitchen floor, and who will carry out the trash?"
Parents who have a democratic style give choices based on a child's ability. For a toddler, the choice may be "red shirt or striped shirt?" For an older child, the choice might be "apple, orange or banana?" Parents guide children's behavior by teaching, not punishing. "You threw your truck at Mindy. That hurt her. We're putting your truck away until you can play with it safely."
