Investigating the role of parenting in Naseri ethics based on Diana Baumrind's theory

Parenting style is one of the prominent theories in the field of psychology, which examines the position of the family and its interaction with children. Based on Diana Baumrind's classification of parenting styles, she introduces four types of authoritarians, permissive, authoritative, and neglectful parenting styles and analyzes the role of parents in raising children. Khwaja Nasir al-Din Tusi, a great philosopher and theologian of the seventh century AH, discusses ethics in his valuable work Naseri Ethics, which is one of the most important practical wisdom treatises, in three sections of individual ethics, household management, and civil politics, analyzing human beings, family, education, and society. This research aims to describe and analyze the educational aspects and parenting styles in Naseri Ethics based on Diana Baumrind's theory. The findings of the study show that what Khwaja Nasir al-Din Tusi presents about parenting styles and the role of parents in raising children in Naseri Ethics can be examined based on the authoritarian parenting style. On the other hand, analyzing the components of this work leads us to valuable achievements in the field of educational and instructional features in classical literature, especially educational literature.
