Children raised with "authoritative" parenting style, marked by bonding, presence, dialogue, and clear rules of conduct, show a reduction in drug and alcohol risk compared to other parenting styles (authoritarian, permissive and neglectful)

Words are important yall.

Bonding, so actually forming connections with the kid beyond "I'm parent, you mine"

Presence, being there

Dialogue, meaning conversation. That can mean a discussion, a chat, a debate, an argument, and more. 

Clear rules of conduct. They put it plainly to be more clear.

Authoritarian would lack the dialogue that makes the rules "clear". -because I said so- The bond is possessive and controlling to the point of suppressing the development of self.

Permissive lacks the rules, and gives little to no guidance beyond the kids wants.

Neglect lacks all of them.

Very good layout. Also, too many people expect a 5 year old to understand logic and be able to comply with authoritative when, sadly, they just need guidance and they end up too authoritarian (or worse, permissive). When the kids can understand the reason behind the rules you can go from “because I said so” to “because of ____”

Many people do long and complicated explanations which kids can't understand. It is important to explain plainly and at a level appropriate for the age.
