Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Parental reading of story books to encourage language development is not a child-rearing practice that encourages violence. It is a positive behavior that can enhance a child's cognitive development. Encouraging children to respond forcibly to provocations, applying physical punishments such as spanking, and lack of parental monitoring of children are all child-rearing practices commonly associated with low-income families that can contribute to an increased risk of violent behavior.
