Comments on all articles by Dr Virgil Davis (397)    What is your Parenting Style? Anonymous: (9 days 9 hours ago.) Humm....So Davis is writing a "parenting" article!!! What a joke! My observation is that his parenting style is do everything for your kids and buy them everything they want no matter what the cost. You usually do have good kids if you don't have to argue with them about anything because your answer is NEVER "No"!
Anonymous: (175 days 10 hours ago.)  Yes, this article is very helpful because I was unaware of my parenting style. Like most I just do what my parents did. Luckily my parents where authoratative and autherian because they drew boundaries and then gave me choices within those boundaries. I love my children and hope to be the best parent I can be, having said that, I do make mistakes and say 'I'm sorry' if I hurt your feelings or you don't feel I am being fair. My other favorite saying is 'this is not a democracy this is a momocracy' Queen Rene' Smith: (346 days 4 hours ago.) Dr. Davis, I have read about these categories of parenting and I fit somewhere in between. However, because of my upbringing, I do lean more toward being authoritarian. I am a single parent of two daughters and their lives are quite different from the traditional family setting I came from. So, I try to be more objective and lenient in some situations. I'm having great success so far in gaining both trust and respect from my daughters as opposed to having them 'fear' me. Opposed to the way I was raised, there is a lot more dialogue and open-end discussion about decisions I make. I also keep in mind advise that came from Dr. Bill Cosby; to never be afraid or ashamed to apologize to your child if you're wrong. Another fine one, Dr. V. Thanx. Response from Dr Virgil Davis (397) Psychoactive Drugs: Use or Cruise? Response from Dr Virgil Davis (397) Queen Rene' Smith: (346 days 5 hours ago.) YES ! This was a very informative article and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I saw the interview between Tom Cruise and Matt Lauer and initially paid it no attention. I just figured, when Tom Cruise bears a child, then he can tell us HIS personal experience with postpartum depression. This article helped me see the 'big picture' and understand the purpose of psychactive drugs. Spiritual Integrity Jen from asdf: (1 year 16 days ago.) Colossians 3:22-41 (verse 23 is quoted) Z. Evans from Chicago, Illinois: (1 year 138 days ago.) This article was very helpful. It would have been more helpful if it included the Scriptural reference. Tonya Dowdy from Greenup, KY: (1 year 160 days ago.) This article really blessed and impressed me. Thank you so much! What is your Parenting Style? T Dowdy from Greenup, KY: (1 year 160 days ago.) Dr. Davis, This was very interesting...I was pleased to find that when I put myself in a parenting catorgory that you listed, I am doing the right thing for my children! Paige Cox: (1 year 317 days ago.)  I believe it is necessary to know as much as possible about parenting. Whether or not you are a parent or going to be. I have two young boys of my own and am always interested in any way to help my parenting skills. I find it fascinating how you are so involved in psychology and do what you love to do... teach. No matter how you teach it's great. Whether it's through class, articles it doesn't matter. Thank you. charletta smith from sandy hook ky: (1 year 355 days ago.) i thought this was real interesting if u have any more articles on parenting let me know sometimes i think i am going about parenting the wrong way but i have only been a full time parent for about 6 months because where i was in foster care. Psychoactive Drugs: Use or Cruise? charletta smith from sandy hook ky: (1 year 355 days ago.) this is funny..i mean this is a good article good job dr. davis Mood Disorders One Of Your Students from Ashland: (2 years 172 days ago.) I would like to say that is a interesting article and you did a great job. Glad to know that you also share your knowledge with more than just your students. Psychoactive Drugs: Use or Cruise? Amanda: (2 years 264 days ago.) One thing Tom Cruise apparently didn't consider is that studies conducted with placebos and with actual psychoactive drugs have consistently proven that psychoactive drugs really do work for depressed individuals, including myself. After three years What is your Parenting Style? Michelle Canoie from Ontario, Canada: (2 years 334 days ago.) Quality parenting makes all the difference in the development of any child. This article is very informative. Erika Mitchell from Hurricane, WV: (2 years 347 days ago.)  This is an enlightening article. We should all be aware of our parenting styles. If more people paid attention to how they raised their children they wouldn't have to ask the question" where did I go wrong"? Psychoactive Drugs: Use or Cruise? Erika Mitchell from Hurricane, WV: (2 years 347 days ago.) James, I believe that you are confusing the issue.The topic is not the physical pain of childbirth, it is the effects of postpartum depression.Next time you have a headache remember that Jesus did not have access to Tylenol. We call it progress. James Ealey` from Ashland Ky, United States: (2 years 348 days ago.) I feel that women shouldnt take anything. In the biblical times nobody had anti-depressants to stop their pain and everything was natural. I think it is all in the mind because they are thinking about nothing but pain the whole nine months. |
