Abstract

This study was conducted to examine the perception of students and teachers about prevailing parenting practices in southern Punjab, Pakistan. A cross-sectional survey was conducted to collect the data from five hundred and forty (Four hundred and fifty students and ninety teachers) both male and female secondary school students and their teachers in three districts of southern Punjab. A sample of the study was selected by using the multistage sampling technique. Two separate self-developed questionnaires were used, one for students and the other for teachers. Collected data was analysed by applying arithmetic mean, standard deviation, and frequencies to explore the perception of students and teachers about parenting practices. It was concluded that the parents of secondary school students practised diversified parenting practices. The most prominent parental rules were authoritative, authoritarian, permissive, and uninvolved. The teacher's perception showed that parenting practices had a significant effect on student's behaviour. The teachers perceived the particular impact on various aspects of students' behaviour like stress feeling, participation in co-curricular activities, feeling nervous, hesitation to discuss their matters, undue independence, bullying in class, and time management. This study will also be helpful for teachers, students, and parents in controlling child behaviour disorders. It is also beneficial for parents to develop good, positive relationships with their children.
