Matt and susan use firm control with their children but encourage communication and negotiation during rule setting within the family. what is their parenting style?

Authoritative parenting.

Explanation:

This type of style is when parents are warm, attuned and nurturing. Listen to the children. Allow autonomy and encourage independence. Reason with children instead of demanding blind obedience. Set clear limits on behavior. Also, the authoritative approach to parenting has been shown to lead to the best outcomes in kids, including better emotional health, social skills, more resiliency, and more secure attachments with their parents. Finally, kids raised by authoritative parents are more likely to become independent, self-reliant, socially accepted, academically successful, and well-behaved. They are less likely to report depression and anxiety, and less likely to engage in antisocial behavior like delinquency and drug use.
