This style of parenting is characterised by the parents’ failure to responsibly look after their children. This style of parenting has negative impacts on the roles of parent in satisfying their dependents specific needs of adequate standard of living, health and safety and security. As these types of parent don’t take care of their dependent, their 5 year old dependent may not even have proper food, clothing or bedding equipment. They may not be feed on time as limited or no love or affection is shown to the child. The parent might not shower the dependent regularly and hence impacts the health of the dependent as he may get infections due to hygiene issues. The dependent may not feel safe and secure due to the lack of support given by the parents to help them overcome nightmares or bad experiences at school.
Additionally, due to no love or affection shown to the dependent, it has negative impact on the role of the parent in building a positive relationship with the dependent. No morals or values are taught to the dependent which results in dependent engaging in risky behaviours such as bullying other dependents at school due to inappropriate behaviour modelled by the parents.
Parents’ not building positive relationship with their dependent results in having negative impact on the role of the parent promoting the well-being of the dependent. Their parenting style negatively impacts the dependents spiritual, emotional and cultural well-being and hence prevents the parent from fulfilling their role in promoting their dependents well-being. The parent and dependent not communicating prevents a parent from teaching their dependent about their belief system and their culture which impacts on the dependents sense of identity. Religion sets morals and values to allow the dependent to have appropriate behaviour and culture allowing them to understand who they are when they grow up. By not having knowledge on these two aspects it negatively impacts the dependent when they grow older as they will feel lost and confused, especially if they don’t live in the country of their homeland.
