Based on the parenting style definitions, both my mother and my father use the authoritative style of parenting. My parents have high expectations for both my brother and I for our future as well as to follow their rules. My brother, Tristan, and sometimes I debate with my parents, sometimes it may be about their rules and to justify why we may have disobeyed their rules. My parents encourage our independence giving us trust that we can handle keeping our grades up, keeping up with our chores, and taking care of expensive items they buy for us; thus we must show our maturity to our parents and follow their guide lines. They have limits of freedom though because we are still adolescences going through life. Whenever

In current time, children often disregard their parents’ orders. This disrespect has greatly increased since the 1930s. Children presently disobey their parents on a regular basis and this is considered normal. Respect for their parents has greatly diminished from the past. Parents’ authority over their children is much less apparent now than it was in the 1930s. Parents must commit themselves to their role in society and make parenting a priority. The future is bleak in regards to any improvement in how well children respect their parents, unless something is done to change how children view their parents’ authority.

My future plans include graduating high school, going to college and getting a master’s degree in Nursing. The career I chose is Nurse Practitioner also known as Advanced Practice Registered Nurse (APRN). To my knowledge Nurse Practitioner includes checking up on patients, prescribing medication, order treatments, and informing patients. The workplace would be fast paced and fast decisions have to made. You are entrusted daily with the lives of patients and can range from situations such as flu to more complicated like providing care to patients in the extensive care unit. To be a Nurse Practitioner I know you will need to form a tough mindset to be prepared for anything and act accordingly to the situation present.
