Problem: You should observe and record a description of conflicts/interactions that occur between at least 5 different sets of parents and children in public settings, such as parks, shopping malls, and stores. Checkout counters where candy and other items designed to appeal to children are displayed are especially good locations for observing such interactions.
For each parent-child pair you observe, use Chapter 12 of your textbook and Power Point notes to classify parents' styles of handling the conflict as authoritative, authoritarian, permissive, or uninvolved. Then write paper describing your observations (sex of parent, sex of child, type of conflict, number of other children present, number of other individuals present, time & location of conflict) and providing a rationale for the classifications.
