...Parent Style Attachment An Overview of Parenting Styles and Attachment The quest to explore the connection between parenting styles and attachment styles was an eye opening journey. We have traveled with the psychologists who have helped us along the way in our pursuit to recognize the parent child dynamics, as it relates to parenting styles and attachment styles. Through the use of literature and my real world observations, I will show some links between attachment styles and parenting styles. The four basic parenting styles are as follows: Authoritative Parent An Authoritative Parent is described by Baumrind as parents who "monitor and impart clear standards for their children’s conduct. They are assertive, but not intrusive and restrictive. Their disciplinary methods are supportive, rather than punitive. They want their children to be assertive as well as socially responsible, and self-regulated as well as cooperative” (Baumrind, The Influence of Parenting Style on Adolescent Competence and Substance Use, 1991). This parenting style is the most popular in the United States, although in specific races, cultures and socioeconomic groups this parenting style may not be very popular. The authoritative parent is one who understands a child’s mind to be tabula rasa. These parents provide a positive emotional climate. They commonly use induction and socialization to mold, grow and correct a child’s behavior while preparing them to be responsible...

...* 1.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Gillette has been the leading brand in men's grooming industry across the globe. With its wide range of products caters to the premium segment of the men's grooming market. It faces intense competition in the toiletries market whereas the competition in the razor market is not that intense. This case study aims at identifying the problems faced by Gillette in the toiletries market. We have suggested a plan for Gillette toiletries along with other suggestions for Gillette to face the competition in the near future and the long run. 2.0 SITUATIONAL ANALYSIS Of Gillette's recent moves, by far the riskiest is the toiletries line. Gillette's track record there is spotty, with successes in the 1960s and 1970s followed by a series of disappointments, such as a failed foray into European women's toiletries in the 1980s. But Gillette's strength is with men, and executives are convinced they can use their strong brand name as an umbrella for a wider range of men's products. The line includes 14 items, notably pre- and after-shaves and a gel shaving cream. The most innovative product: a gel-based deodorant that will roll on using a patented, sieve like delivery system. Will it work? Many outsiders are sceptical, citing Gillette's sorry record in toiletries. Besides, competition has become very stiff in the once fragmented men's toiletries business. Procter & Gamble now owns Old Spice and Noxzema, Colgate bought Mennen, and Unilever grabbed Faberge's...
