This style has been found to be more effective and healthier for the parent and the growing and developing child. The important area in this style is communication with children. It allows children to speak and express themselves without the parent responding with judgment or punishment. Neglectful parenting is the most harmful parenting style. Parents do not respond to any behavior of the child, be it emotional, physical or simply uninvolved. The most harmful area is the lack of communication between parents and child. No communication can cause many problems in children's behavior later in life, especially in the developing relationship. Permissive parenting is another harmful style. Parents are involved in their children's lives but do not punish or discipline them. Children have no boundaries. There are no fixed rules or if parents have rules they can compromise to avoid conflicts. This lack of discipline brings with it poor self-control and unhealthy behavior in the child. Children raised with this parenting style grow up believing that there are no negative consequences
