Authoritarian

Explanation:

Baumrind has given four different types of parenting styles including, Permissive, Authoritarian, Uninvolved, and Authoritative.

Authoritarian parenting style: The authoritarian parenting style is a form of parenting style in which parents posses low responsiveness and high demands. An authoritarian parent generally consists of high expectations from their child and lacks in providing nurturance and feedback.

If the child of the authoritarian parent mistakes regarding anything then the child gets harsh punishment from his or her parents. These parents usually have a negative impact on their child and because of this, the child shows low self-esteem and poor social skills.
