Child rearing which includes the popular method for educating children by parents, plays an important role in the way of development and formation of child’s personality. In western countries many researches have been conducted on the different methods and consequences of child rearing. Based on theses researches four methods of child rearing are recognized as follows: Powerfully Child rearing , Autocratic Child rearing, Easy taking Child rearing and Tolerantly Child rearing. This classification is based on parents’ responses and requests. In Islamic sources and narrations we face with the child rearing methods based on Shia Imams’.The responsibility of child rearing belongs to the parent based on Islamic view and in this way they should use the best methods. Each method of child rearing relates to some special behavior in children.
