But even if the results are different, they are not necessarily bad because different cultures value different things in their children. For example, collectivist cultures value being one with the group, and children of authoritarian parents would do well to raise their children in that culture. Individualistic cultures value individualism, creativity, and success, so children of an authoritative parent would fit more into that culture (Arnett, 2016). One parenting style is not better than the other, it just depends on the culture in which the child is raised and how he manages to do so.
