Parenting style test

Fenix Behavioral Health educational questionnaire

This educational questionnaire helps you discover your predominant parenting style, based on the classic parenting-styles model (Baumrind; Maccoby & Martin). The model combines two forces: warmth and communication — listening, affection, closeness — and structure and limits — clear rules, consistency, supervision. Your result will show how you combine those two forces, with both scores in view.

Why start with yourself? Because on many occasions a child's behavior is a symptom of an external factor: the family dynamic, situations in their social environment, the differences between the parenting styles living under the same roof, or a lack of structure and consistent discipline, among others. Looking at yourself honestly — how much your own parenting style and the family dynamic at home influence things — is the first mirror for starting to see more clearly where that behavior comes from. This questionnaire is that self-evaluation: the best way to start helping your child — and yourself.

It is an educational guide: it is not a validated instrument, it is not a diagnosis, and it is not a judgment of you as a parent.

The result is not a diagnosis: it is a first step toward understanding yourself better. When you finish, we will ask for your name and email to send you a more detailed, personalized explanation of your result; you will see your on-screen result right away, when you submit.
