I voted authoritarian.

My mom is a mix of authoritarian/authoritative. And my father is authoritarian.

permissive in the ways other parents were not, neglectful emotionally (as long as i stayed locked alone in my room and didn't talk, or bother adults everything was ok. i'm 40 now and still feel like everyone else is an adult but me and i have no right to talk to them, even people half my age.). extremely dysfunctional environment; my parents were blue-collar simpletons, never showed any affection toward each other, no communication whatsoever, had separate bedrooms, we all went off and ate separately in our bedrooms, etc.
