to the strategies of parents in learning that the children mimic, and to the
environment where children are raised by their own parents. Thus, the focus of

assign many responsibilities to their children and avoid exercising any form of
reason with their children when they misbehave. Children with permissive
parents are essentially free to roam and do whatever they want (Parenting,
2017). When a parent is permissive, they see their child as an equal rather than
as the child of a parent. Rather than boundaries and expectations, their primary
parenting tools are gift-giving and bribery. In this situation, a child has few
demands, and parents have a difficult time saying "no" because they avoid
asserting authority and confrontation. They also avoid all forms of punishment at
who are not very warm or demanding. These parents, in particular, have low
expectations of their children and frequently fail to respond to their child's needs.
In general, these parents devote little energy to child care beyond what is
parents are not concerned with their children's emotional needs. They may
dismiss their emotions, criticize them, or foster a harsher attitude. Children learn
that they cannot seek emotional support from them. These parents do not

contexts that need rule compliance, such as school or job (Guarnotta, 2021).

study habits. Students must develop strong study habits to flourish in their
academic work. Alex (2011) as cited in Jato et, al. (2014) defined habit as
something that is done on scheduled, regular and planned basis that is not
without justification, and without exceptions. Thus, the habit developed can be

waits until the night before a test and then stays up all night attempting to cram
the information into his head exemplifies someone with poor study habits.
Loveless (2021) provided the top ten study habits that highly successful
students adopt. These are as follows: a) avoid cramming all studying into one
session, b) plan when you're going to study, c) study at the same time, d) each
study session should have a specific goal, e) never procrastinate the scheduled
study session, f) begin with the most difficult subject first, g) always review notes
