Authoritative vs. Authoritarian Parent
Pamela Druckerman writes in The New York Times:
In the “Hidden Tribes” survey published last year by the nonprofit group More in Common, respondents who valued self-reliance in children more than obedience, and creativity over good behavior — staples of both authoritative and permissive parents — were more likely to have voted for Hillary Clinton in 2016. Those with more authoritarian views on parenting were more likely to have voted for Donald Trump.
An authoritarian parent voted for an authoritarian president? That makes perfect sense.
