Your parents were...
Your child is misbehaving. How do you handle them?
Who comes to your holiday gatherings?
What's most important to you?
Which of these makes the best parent?
How much time do your parents spend with your children?
And finally, do you consciously use the parenting techniques your parents used on you?

Wow! You certainly are! Yes!
Why improve on what works? Your parents were excellent at raising you, so it makes sense to do as they did! You had an incredibly happy childhood and you hope you're giving your own children the same, and as parents all we can do is our very best. Nothing is as important to you as family, and it was your parents (of course) who instilled this & your kind heart within you. Way to go, fam, we need more like you!
No, you are not!
No, you are not!
Wow! You REALLY looked up to, respected, and even possibly feared your parents. They may have been super old school, and you are trying your HARDEST not to make the same harsh guidelines. Regardless of intentions, even the best could use some improvements! You appreciate everything they did for you and have learned from their mistakes to be the very best parent you can be!

Hmmm... Sort of!
You take a little of this, a little of that- you know that being a great parent requires being flexible and creative above all things, and that's what you excel at! Your parents felt distant at times, but were still there for you. Above all, you're trying to rectify this WITHOUT smothering your children. You aren't perfect and neither were your parents, but you still give it your absolute best!
