According to the framework created by Baumrind and her colleagues (1991), an authoritative parent is one who:
  1. Has high demands, low responsivity, imposes standards on how to behave, and uses threats and punishments
  2. Combines both reasoned control and responsivity to create high standards and uses rewards, praise, and explanations
  3. Shows little responsivity or demands while likely being hostile towards the child
  4. Cares deeply for the child but sets very few demands and is generally non-punitive
Explanation
Answer: B - An authoritative parent typically combines both reasoned control and responsivity to create high standards and uses rewards, praise, and explanations.
High demands and low responsivity, little responsivity or demands with the possibility of hostility, and few demands and being non-punitive describe authoritarian, rejecting-neglecting, and permissive parenting styles respectively.
