Abstract

A descriptive study was conducted to assess Parenting Behavior Among Working Parents of School Children at a selected area in Coimbatore. Using purposive sampling technique, 28 working parents of school children between 6 to 12 years were selected. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire on parenting behavior. Findings revealed that, out of the 28 parents majority (64.29 %) of parents had an appropriate parenting behavior and 35.71 % of them had a moderately appropriate parenting behavior. None of the parents had inappropriate parenting behavior. Chi-square value was computed to find out the association between baseline variables of parents and their parenting behavior. Findings revealed that, there was a significant association between the age of mothers (χ2 = 14.02) and parenting behavior at p<0.05 level of significance. None of the other baseline variables had any association with the parenting behavior among parents of school children.
